A bi-directional handle and latch assembly mountable to a door or other closure. The latch assembly may be operated by either of a first handle or a second handle. The first handle may operate a latch bolt in the latch assembly by rotating the handle in either the clockwise or the counter-clockwise direction, and operate the latch bolt irrespective of whether or not the second handle is locked. The invention employs a simple construction for ease of manufacture, repair, and replacement of the first handle with other handles with different aesthetic or functional outer designs or configurations.
