About Us

The modern firm can trace its roots back to 1885, when the Victorian solicitor Theophilus Rowland established his practice in Spring Gardens, Manchester. Since that time, it has grown consistently through a series of mergers and acquisitions to create the firm that it is today, with 130 staff and 9 equity partners, still based in Manchester’s commercial centre.

We now maintain the development of the firm through organic growth and carefully planned acquisitions. We invest in training the best people and offering a supportive environment where they can progress their careers as a valued member of the team. We believe in increasing our strength from within. This approach has helped us to create a successful legal practice where loyalty and commitment are rewarded.

Our commitment to you is that we will take the time to understand your business, so that we can develop a longstanding and sustainable relationship and help you develop your business and realise your ambitions.
