Pannone is firmly established as one of the country's leading regional law firms. It has a team of over 600 staff including over 300 specialist lawyers who serve clients both across the UK and internationally from Manchester and London offices.

Pannone is a diverse firm with common values of energy and excellence across all practice areas. Many lawyers are leaders in their respective fields and the firm recruits for warmth, ambition and integrity so that clients deal with people who are easy to work with.

Clients are at the heart of the working relationship at Pannone and the lawyers expect to be measured on the quality of their work, the integrity of their approach and the results that are delivered for the client. Pannone is a firm that embraces change and always looks for ways to improve its client service.

The firm offers a full range of legal advice for businesses, private clients and the public and voluntary sectors, acting for a diverse range of clients, from private individuals to businesses of all sizes from SMEs to multinational plcs. Pannone also has an extensive public sector client base, acting for over 50 local authorities across the UK.

The firm operates four divisions which house its client offerings: Corporate Services, Dispute Resolution and Regulatory, Family, Personal and Financial and Injury and Negligence. Pannone Affinity Solutions handles volume legal work for insurers, banks and retailers operating in the commoditised legal services market.

Corporate Services provides a full service legal offering to businesses of all kinds and includes all corporate and commercial work types as well as property and corporate recovery, insolvency and debt recovery.

Dispute Resolution and Regulatory works closely with our Corporate Services division and is focused on resolving disputes in a quick and cost-effective manner with minimal disruption. The Regulatory group undertakes a wide range of work from implementing robust compliance systems and conducting internal audits to successfully defending complex criminal and regulatory investigations.

Family, Personal and Financial offers a fully rounded service to private clients. One of the largest teams outside London, the team deals with tax and wealth planning, wills and estates, divorce and Court of Protection work.

The Injury and Negligence division represents clients throughout the country seeking compensation for injuries or medical negligence, including a large number of maximum severity cases. The Clinical Negligence team is one of the largest dedicated teams in the UK and the PI team has a demonstrable national and international reputation for the quality of its work, the size of settlements obtained and expertise in handling multi-party and complex claims.

Both the Legal 500 and The Chambers UK Guide place all our departments within the top few in Manchester, with many holding the top spot. We are recognised as being one of the most innovative law firms in the UK, with services like Connect2Law and Entrepreneurial Services , the former acting to link smaller regional law firms to Pannone's specialist area legal teams and the latter, a service which allows SME's to access high quality professional legal advice free of charge (in the first instance), with a minimum of fuss.

Within these services we operate a buying group, allowing any of our clients the opportunity to utilise our network of suppliers reducing the cost of their business overheads.
