Myerson Solicitors

Myerson Solicitors We are an award-winning, independent law firm providing the highest quality service to businesses and individuals across the UK and internationally.

Myerson was founded by lawyer Neil Myerson in Altrincham, South Manchester, in 1982. Neil's intention was to provide a city-centre standard commercial law practice in a more pleasant, relaxed and amenable environment. Like Neil, almost all of the solicitors and partners at the firm previously trained and worked at large Manchester city centre or national law firms, and bring with them high standar

ds of professionalism
and a wealth of expertise. The firm's primary office is a row of converted cottages in the conservation area of Altrincham town centre. This unusual green setting reflects a different working ethos: our services are tailored to the needs of business people, both in terms of their work and home life, and delivered by first-rate legal professionals in a highly accessible location. In this environment, potential can blossom and plans for both business and family take root and grow.

We were delighted to sponsor the Manchester Young Professionals Pride event at Tangerine last night! ๐Ÿณ๏ธโ€๐ŸŒˆ

It was a fantastic evening, bringing together professionals from across Greater Manchester, with plenty of the Myerson team joining the celebrations.

At Myerson, we are committed to supporting a diverse and inclusive professional community where everyone feels welcome, represented and able to thrive. We were therefore proud to support an event that brings people together and celebrates the LGBTQ+ community across our region.

A huge thank you to Manchester Young Professionals for organising such a brilliant evening.

Wishing everyone celebrating a very happy Manchester Pride this weekend! ๐ŸŒˆ

We are taking on Cancer Research UKโ€™s Shine Night Walk this October, and we need your support.

Colleagues from across the firm have signed up to walk through Manchester after dark on Friday 2nd October, with some tackling the 10K route and others going the distance with the half-marathon.

Together, we will be raising funds in memory of our much-loved colleague and friend, Barbara Allman, who sadly passed away earlier this year.

Barbara spent five years as an important part of our Business Support team and brought warmth, kindness and friendship to Myerson every day. Taking on this challenge together is our way of celebrating the impact she had on our firm while supporting a cause that can make a difference to so many others.

Now we want to make every one of those miles count.

Please help us raise as much as possible for Cancer Research UK. Whether it is ยฃ5, ยฃ10 or simply sharing our fundraising page with your network, every bit of support will help.

We will be sharing more from the team as we prepare for the big night. For now, a huge thank you to everyone walking, donating and supporting us along the way. ๐Ÿ’œ

โš–๏ธ High Court success for our Commercial Litigation team

Myerson has successfully defended a grounds maintenance sub-contractor in a significant restrictive covenant dispute, securing a favourable outcome and a substantial recovery of the clientโ€™s legal costs.

Led by David Jones, with support from Kit Bevan, the case concerned an urgent interim injunction application following the termination of a commercial relationship.

The stakes were significant. The restrictions were said to affect business worth close to ยฃ1 million, with potential consequences for the clientโ€™s wider business model, its staff and sub-contractors.

The High Court refused the injunction, with the judgment providing useful guidance for businesses on:

๐Ÿ”น The enforceability of restrictive covenants in commercial contracts
๐Ÿ”น The higher threshold that can apply where interim relief would effectively determine the dispute
๐Ÿ”น Whether damages provide an adequate alternative remedy
๐Ÿ”น Why parties seeking urgent injunctive relief must act promptly

A fantastic result for our client and an important decision for businesses entering into or seeking to enforce restrictive covenants.

Read the full case analysis from David and Kit to understand the judgment and its practical implications.

For those considering gamete donation or surrogacy, understanding both the practical journey and the legal implications can be an important part of making informed decisions.

Myerson Family Law Associate Joe Ferguson will be joining as a guest speaker to provide specialist insight into the legal considerations surrounding these routes to parenthood.

The discussion will explore:
โœ”๏ธ When gamete donation or surrogacy may be considered
โœ”๏ธ The practical steps involved and who can participate
โœ”๏ธ The legal frameworks governing both processes
โœ”๏ธ Navigating treatment pathways in the UK and overseas
โœ”๏ธ Key considerations to understand before beginning the process

๐Ÿ“… Wednesday 19 August
๐Ÿ•– 7PM
๐Ÿ“ Facebook Live

If you are considering gamete donation or surrogacy, or know someone who may benefit from understanding their options, join Aurora Reproductive Healthcare and Joe for an informative discussion covering the medical, practical and legal aspects of the journey.

Did you know our bee has a story behind it? ๐Ÿ

Our colourful bee, Bee-bop-a-raver, is much more than a landmark outside our offices.

Originally part of Manchester's Bee in the City trail, it found its home at Myerson in 2018 after we secured it at the charity auction supporting We Love MCR.

Today, it proudly represents our Manchester roots, our collaborative culture and the way we work together to achieve the very best outcomes for our clients.

If you're passing our Altrincham office, be sure to stop and say hello!
