Myerson's Corporate team advised specialist immigration law firm Latitude Law on its acquisition by national law firm Clarke Willmott.
Founded by Managing Partner Gary McIndoe in 2007, Latitude Law has grown into one of the UK’s leading immigration firms, with a 14-strong legal team and offices in Manchester, London and Brussels.
The firm advises businesses, business owners, high net worth individuals and private clients on a broad range of immigration matters.
The Transaction
Latitude Law was acquired by national law firm Clarke Willmott, with the transaction seeing the Manchester-based practice join the national firm and creating a dedicated UK immigration law capability within its commercial services offering.
The deal represented an important next stage in Latitude Law’s development and provided an opportunity for the firm and its team to become part of a larger national practice.
How Myerson Helped
Myerson’s Corporate team advised Latitude Law throughout the transaction, led by Partner and Head of Corporate and Commercial M. Akeel Latif, alongside Senior Associate Simon Nolan.
The team provided clear, pragmatic and commercially focused advice throughout the process, helping Latitude Law and its management team navigate the transaction and reach a successful outcome.
Gary McIndoe, Managing Partner at Latitude Law, said:
“Choosing the right advisers for this transaction was incredibly important to us. Akeel, Simon and the wider Myerson team understood our business and what we wanted to achieve from the outset. We have worked with Myerson across many practice areas over the years, and I felt confident their corporate team would understand our business and the rationale behind the acquisition.
“They provided clear, pragmatic and commercially focused advice throughout the process, and we felt we were in trusted hands at every stage. We are very grateful for their support in helping us reach this exciting next chapter for Latitude Law.”
M. Akeel Latif, Partner and Head of Corporate and Commercial at Myerson Solicitors, said:
“It has been a pleasure to advise Gary and the Latitude Law team on this important transaction. Latitude Law has built an excellent reputation in the immigration market, and this deal represents an exciting next stage in its development as part of Clarke Willmott.
“This transaction builds on our strong track record supporting law firms, their owners and management teams through acquisitions, disposals, employee ownership and succession.
As a 100% independent and employee-owned firm, we are well placed to support those considering their strategic options, combining impartial advice with a clear understanding of the commercial and cultural considerations involved in transactions within the legal sector.”
