Spinningfields office for Merseyside law firm

Merseyside firm MSB Solicitors has expanded its presence in Manchester with an office in Spinningfields.

The new location at 3 Hardman Square makes it the Liverpool-headquartered firm’s fifth location.

Over the last three years the firm’s revenue has seen significant growth, increasing by £1.2m each year, with a further £2m growth anticipated in the next 12 months.

Having already developed strong links with clients in the property and litigation sectors in Manchester, MSB recognised it was time to set up a base to enable the firm to build on its existing relationships, as well as develop new ones in the neighbouring city.

Following its record growth, MSB has also welcomed 74 new members of staff in the last 18 months and has plans to recruit more with further plans for a new Liverpool office.

The Manchester site will initially house a permanent base of solicitors, admin and support staff from the firm’s family and social housing and regeneration team, with plans to include the commercial property and commercial litigation teams within the next six months.

Emma Carey, Managing Partner at MSB, said: “As a firm, we’re keen to increase our presence across the North West, expanding our services beyond Liverpool and over to our neighbours in Manchester.

“We’re proud to deliver excellence in legal services to all of the communities we serve – whether they be ultra-net worth clients or vulnerable clients eligible for legal aid.

“We are still very much a regional firm, and can best serve the clients of our community as we know our region better than national or international firms, meaning we can provide a truly bespoke, personalised service.

“This move to Manchester is a recognition of our success over the past year, and we’re looking forward to building our client base in the city as we expand our offer.”
