Gateley was the first UK commercial law firm to list on the London Stock Exchange’s growth market, AIM, in 2015 and through its acquisition of a number of complementary business services companies, has become a leading legal and professional services group with law at its core.

Its Manchester team of more than 200 employees at Gateley Legal is situated in the heart of the city at Ship Canal House in King Street and forms part of the 1,400-strong team employed by Gateley nationally.

Key to the Manchester operation is Gateley’s corporate and finance transactional teams, including a strong private equity offering. The experienced team advises on a variety of transactions, whether for institutional investors, business owners looking for exit, management teams or debt providers.

Committed to the Manchester business community, Gateley is sponsoring the Business of the Year category at the Manchester Evening News Business Awards.
