Mann Roberts was founded by David Mann in Liverpool in April 2022. David had left his job at Aaron & Partners in Chester to set up the practice. He said at the time: “I could not think of a better place to found our new firm.”
Since opening its first office at No 1 Mann Island on the waterfront, Mann Roberts has experienced significant growth and David now felt the time was right to grow its geographical footprint.
“Opening in Manchester is very much part of our strategic growth plan. It is an exciting new chapter for our firm and very much driven by client demand. We are continuing to grow our client base on a national level,” he said.
David has built a reputation advising on complex and high value disputes both in the UK and internationally with a particular emphasis on advising shareholders and partners in owner managed businesses.
He added: “As we continue to develop the business, we are determined to remain true to our values. We have a very genuine aspiration to be the best place to work in the North-West. Not the best law firm to work at, the very best place to work.”
Earlier this year, the firm further strengthened its management structure by promoting Colin Vickers to head of its Liverpool office. Mann Roberts has also confirmed its commitment to creating opportunities for youth.
In Liverpool, the firm supports local charity Ykids, helping to improve the lives and futures of children, young people and their families living in some of the UK’s most deprived areas.
“We will be looking to replicate this approach in Manchester,” said Mann Roberts’s relationships director, Frances Mann. “We are passionate about helping disadvantaged children and will be partnering with a local charity to deliver fundraising and mentoring initiatives.”
