Liverpool-based MSB Solicitors have been named once again in the prestigious The Times Best Law Firms 2023.
Now in its fifth year, The Times and independent market-research company, Statista, conducted surveys among thousands of lawyers and used their responses to identify the leading 200 law firms in England & Wales, and the top 40 in Scotland.
Today’s news of MSB’s inclusion comes following a successful year for the firm, which has seen it increase its North West footprint, opening its first Manchester office as part of its commitment to increase services to communities across the region.
The firm have also had a positive year in terms of recruitment and employee retention, having recruited 160 new staff members in just 18 months and promoted 21 members of its team. Further, demonstrating its commitment to providing opportunities for the next generation of talent within the legal profession, this year MSB have taken on a total of nine new trainees to qualify with the firm.
The news of the firm’s growth in numbers and office locations coincides with record growth in revenue, with an increase of approximately £1.2 million each year for the last three years, and a further £2 million anticipated in the next 12 months.
In recognition of its commitment to delivering excellence and substantial growth, this year MSB have been shortlisted for a number of awards, including this year’s LexisNexis Family Law Awards 2022 for ‘Family Law Firm of the Year’.
Last month, MSB was listed in four categories in the latest Legal 500, with its Crime and Family departments being ranked as Tier 1. As part of the 2023 list, various members of the firm also received distinctive recognition, with the Managing Partner, Emma Carey, named a ‘Leading Individual’, Katie Camozzi being highlighted as a ‘Rising Star’, Dr Emma Palmer listed as a ‘Next Generation Partner’ and Emma Palmer and Pauline McNamara recognised as ‘Practice Heads’.

MSB’s Family and Crime departments also received further acknowledgement after being ranked in Band 1 of the official guide released in October.
