What is halliwells?

Halliwells is a former law firm based in Manchester, England. It was founded in 1996 and grew rapidly, expanding to London, Liverpool, and Sheffield. The firm specialized in corporate and commercial law, with a particular focus on the media and entertainment industries.

In 2010, Halliwells went into administration after running up a large amount of debt. The firm had been hit hard by the financial crisis and a slowdown in its core practice areas. Its assets were acquired by other law firms, including Hill Dickinson and Gateley.

Halliwells was known for its innovative and dynamic approach to legal services and had won numerous industry awards. However, its collapse was a significant event in the legal sector and a cautionary tale about the risks of over-expansion and rapid growth.
