Last night, national law firm Clarke Willmott LLP celebrated the 15th anniversary of its Manchester office, marking a significant milestone that highlights the firm’s long-standing commitment to the city and its continued growth across the North West.
Hosted at Manchester’s iconic Cloud 23 bar, the event brought together clients, colleagues and professional contacts to celebrate 15 years of growth and partnership in the city, and to look ahead to the next chapter of Clarke Willmott’s Manchester story.
Since opening in 2011, Clarke Willmott has built a thriving Manchester office that is a key part of the firm’s national footprint. Over the past 15 years, the Manchester team has advised nearly 5000 clients across a wide range of sectors, including corporate and commercial, commercial property, commercial and private client litigation, construction, employment, family, probate, tax and estate planning, housing management, insolvency, personal injury and planning & environmental, reflecting the deep expertise within the office.
Beyond client work, the Manchester office has maintained a strong focus on responsible business and community engagement throughout its 15-year history. The law firm has supported charities including the Ghazali Trust and St Anne’s Hospice, and now focuses its charitable efforts on Rise Up and the Social Mobility Foundation, both at a firm-wide level and with particular emphasis on engagement in Manchester.
The Manchester team has also been instrumental in driving a number of sustainability and environmental initiatives in the region, collaborating with organisations such as CyanLines, the Manchester Carbon Literacy Committee and the Manchester Climate Change Partnership to deliver meaningful, lasting environmental impact.
As a further demonstration of its long-term commitment to Manchester, Clarke Willmott has recently signed a new 10 year lease for its office, reinforcing the firm’s plans to remain a key part of the city’s professional landscape for the decade ahead.
Peter Swinburn, CEO of Clarke Willmott LLP, commented: “Reaching 15 years in Manchester is a proud moment for the firm. We’ve watched the office go from strength to strength – it is a great example of our long-term, sustainable approach to growth. We look forward to continuing to invest in the region for many years to come.”
Ed Foukes, Head of Clarke Willmott’s Manchester office, said: “Our success in Manchester is driven by our people, our culture and our commitment to building trusted relationships with clients. Our team is passionate about delivering excellent service for our clients, while also making a meaningful contribution to the local community. This anniversary is an opportunity to reflect on what we’ve achieved and to look ahead with confidence.”
