A continuing passion for providing high quality legal services in the local area has found Allwright Bourke Lawyers and Conveyancing recognised as a finalist in the Business NSW Excellence in Small Business award in the western region.

Allwright Bourke was founded in 2014 by Steph Allwright and is celebrating its 11th year in business this April.

What began with a single office in Parkes has since expanded to include permanent offices in Forbes, Dubbo and Tumut and with it an experienced and growing competent team.

Steph said the business has grown organically in response to a real need for high quality legal services in rural and regional areas.

"People were having to travel out of town for legal advice," Steph said.

Steph saw a solution and that was to provide high quality legal advice locally.

Jess Bourke is now Steph's business partner and the firm now offers legal services in conveyancing, wills, estate planning and family law and is not only known for its professionalism but for its strong ties to the local community.

"At the core of what we do is a genuine love for living and working rurally," Steph said.

"It's not just about delivering professional services, it's about being part of the community."

The firm supports a wide range of the community including sporting clubs and not-for-profit organisations and is proud to give back to the communities that have supported their growth.

The Business NSW Excellence in Small Business award acknowledges a businesses growth, it's ability to achieve business success and it's resilience.

"It makes us very proud to see our hard work recognised, it's a beautiful thing to know the community values what we do and our business is seen as an industry leader in regional NSW," Steph said.

As the firm enters it's second decade, Steph says the business will remain focused on delivering personalised legal services with a local touch.

"This nomination gives us the confidence that what we're doing is not only working, it's making a difference," Steph added.
