Ormskirk · Chartered Accountants

Accounting made simple.

We’re a friendly, family-run firm that ditches the jargon and the hourly clock. Just clear advice, fixed fees, and the latest cloud technology to make your business more profitable.

What we do

Everything your business needs

One friendly team, fixed fees for standard compliance services, and a dedicated client manager who actually picks up the phone.

Accounts

Statutory accounts prepared correctly and on time, keeping you on the right side of HMRC and Companies House.

Tax

Self Assessment, Corporation Tax and VAT. Proactive planning so you never pay a penny more than you need to.

Payroll & Auto-enrolment

Payroll, pensions and payslips handled for you so your team is always paid right.

Cloud Accounts

Real-time figures in Xero or Quickbooks, set up and supported: your numbers, wherever you are.

Forecasts, budgets and funding support to help ambitious businesses grow swiftly and strategically.

Why West Lancs

Great things come in small packages

If your idea of an accountant is someone suited & booted in an expensive office charging by the hour, then maybe we’re not the firm for you.

We do things differently.

No jargon

We talk your language and explain things in plain English, no confusing accountant-speak

Fixed fees

For standard compliance jobs we agreed fees up front, never by the hour. You always know exactly what you’ll pay

A dedicated manager

One named client manager who knows your business: think Robin to your Batman

Technology focused

We use the latest AI and cloud tools so your finances are simple, secure and always up to date

Don’t just take our word for it

I called WLCA to arrange assistance with Capital Gains form completion. After a quick chat with Keith, and to my surprise, I was advised I didn't actually need this service. Keith helped me understand my situation and offered friendly, helpful advice backed up professionally in writing. I highly recommend WLCA.
