Manchester
With its dynamism and diversity, no wonder so many of the UK’s most exciting businesses choose to make Manchester their home. You’ll find us here too.
From a standing start on first opening in the city in 2013, we've grown in size and revenue year-on-year. Driving this growth is our clients' success, with businesses of all sizes relying on us for advice across the full range of legal services and sectors.
Our corporate team has built an offering that’s renowned nationwide for being a leading UK advisory practice, and we also have exceptional expertise in advising clients in the Financial Services sector in the law and technology relating to Payments, Open Banking and FinTech.
This expertise has been recognised by clutch of award success. In 2020 we took home awards for ‘Innovation of the Year’ and ‘Employment Team of the Year’ at the Manchester Legal Awards, following wins in 2019 for ‘Employment team of the year’ and ‘Law Firm innovation’.
We're actively involved in the local ecosystem, for example launching a first-of-its kind Fintech School for our lawyers, in partnership with the Department of Accounting, Finance and Banking at Manchester Metropolitan University in 2020. And in 2021 partner Claire Graham joined the board of the new North West Fraud Forum, which brings together leading fraud professionals from across the public and private sector to help businesses combat the increasing threat of fraud and cybercrime.
