Mann Roberts Solicitors

What Mann Roberts Solicitors does

Mann Roberts Solicitors Limited is a privately-held English law firm founded in March 2022 by David Mann and Frances Mann, headquartered at No1 Mann Island, Liverpool, with a regional office opened in Manchester in February 2026. The firm is authorised and regulated by the Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA Number 830664) and operates a selective, application-based client intake model positioned as a "premium" practice.

The firm's service portfolio spans two core lines — corporate and commercial legal services (transactions, strategic advice, asset and corporate finance, security documentation) and dispute resolution (commercial litigation, arbitration, mediation, adjudication) — supported by specialist practice areas including construction disputes and adjudication, professional negligence, shareholder and partnership disputes, insolvency and restructuring, defamation, IP infringement, and inheritance claims. It serves eleven named industry verticals including construction and engineering, agriculture, marine and shipping, aviation, banking, insurance and reinsurance, professional practices, charity and not-for-profit, sport, media, and international/cross-border matters. The construction adjudication offering is productised with publicly disclosed fixed-fee tiers ranging from £2,500+VAT to £26,000+VAT by dispute value band; other services are quote-based. Distribution is direct: consultations booked via Office 365, telephone (0151 433 3373), email, and website enquiry forms.

The firm has grown from two co-founders and one initial hire (Alexander Mullin in 2022) to approximately 10-11 team members by late 2025, including senior lateral hires such as Legal Director Michael Wilson and Senior Consultant Stephen Marais (the latter with over 25 years at major City law firms). There is no disclosed external funding, no parent company, and no stock exchange listing; ownership and control remain with the founders. The business is people- and relationship-led rather than technology-product-led, with marketing presence across LinkedIn, TikTok, Twitter/X, and Instagram and thought leadership via its "Information Matters" blog. Revenue is not publicly disclosed.
