L J O'Brien Chartered Accountants

L J O'Brien Accountants Limited is a chartered accounting practice with a rich history of providing exceptional service to individuals, sole traders, partnerships, and limited companies. Founded in 2001, our practice is based on the outskirts of Chester, close to Ellesmere Port, and has since expanded to offer a wide range of services to our clients.

Our story began when Lorna J O'Brien, a fully qualified Chartered accountant, decided to establish her own accounting practice. With a strong foundation in mathematics and years of experience in various industries, Lorna brought a unique perspective to the world of accounting. In 2013, the practice expanded further with the employment of another Chartered Accountant, extending the range and capacity of the practice.

As fully qualified Chartered accountants, we are committed to staying up-to-date with the latest developments in the accounting world, ensuring our clients receive the best possible service. We are subject to a practice assurance regime implemented by the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales (ICAEW), ensuring our work is of the highest standard.
