Olliers Solicitors are delighted to announce we have been shortlisted in both the Crime Team and Small Firm of the Year categories at the Manchester Legal Awards 2017.

Olliers Solicitors – Specialist Criminal Defence Law Firm

The shortlisting comes after a fantastic year for Olliers in 2016. We won the Crime Team of the Year at last year’s Manchester Legal Awards and were also successful at the Modern Law Awards in November 2016, again winning Crime Team of the Year.

Olliers also retained its top tier status in the 2016 edition of the Legal 500 for both crime and fraud and was additionally ranked as a top tier firm by Chambers Directory 2017.

Matthew Claughton, Managing Director of Olliers, commented:

“To have been shortlisted for both Crime Team and Small Law Firm of the Year again at the Manchester Legal Awards is fantastic. 2016 proved to be an amazing year for Olliers and it is fantastic to start the New Year in such a positive fashion. The shortlistings reflect the commitment, hard work and dedication of every single member of Olliers.”

Manchester Legal Awards 2017

The winners of all categories will be announced at the ceremony at the Midland Hotel on Thursday 2rd March 2017. The evening itself is always a fabulous event and we would like to wish good luck to all our fellow nominees.
