Farleys to accelerate growth after joining Lawfront

Blackburn-based Farleys Solicitors has secured the backing to accelerate its growth plans after joining the Lawfront group.

Farleys employs 150 people, including 15 partners. All remain with the firm, along with the Farleys brand.

The firm becomes part of Lawfront's efforts to build a leading national law firm by offering businesses the support to develop through investing capital and resources in central services, systems, people and culture.

The news follows ten years of consistent growth for Farleys and will allow the firm to grow and strengthen its offering and footprint through service development and targeted acquisitions across the North West region and beyond.

Ian Liddle, managing partner at Farleys, said: "This is a fantastic opportunity for Farleys and will unlock many opportunities for our already successful team to grow and develop.

“Our ethos remains the same – legal expertise with a down to earth approach, and we have already invested in a number of key appointments and practice areas over recent months which is indicative of our commitment to increasing and strengthening our existing teams,

“With the support of Lawfront we will continue to build upon and enhance the service that we offer to our clients, whilst also looking at opportunities to grow by way of acquisition.”
