”"I’ve worked with Mark Manley for many years, and there is simply no one better when it comes to media law. Most recently, Mark acted with speed, precision, and total professionalism to get a false and damaging story removed by the Daily Mail. His ability to navigate high-pressure media situations is unmatched – calm, strategic, and always one step ahead.

Whenever the media attack, misrepresent, or breach my intellectual property, I have complete confidence that Mark will act immediately and effectively. His dedication, legal expertise, and results-driven approach are why I consider him the best media lawyer in the country – and I wouldn’t trust anyone else to protect my name and reputation.

I cannot recommend Mark highly enough. If you need a fierce, knowledgeable, and utterly dependable media lawyer, Mark Manley is the only name you need"

Kate StewartEntrepreneur | Philanthropist | Public Figure

”I was recommended the services of Manleys by a close friend who is also a solicitor. His words to me at the time were ‘if I get a letter from Manleys, I know their client has had the best advice and I urge my client to settle quickly’. From the outset, Jess was fantastic. The fact that I have the best lawyers on speed dial has given me the confidence to grow my business and also look into other ventures.

Phil Tottey.Private Client

”I have known Mark for over 15 years and have never been less than satisfied by both his professional advice and his frank approach to every case whereby he tells the truth plainly and without adornment and as a client you learn to respect his advice, however painful it can sometimes feel. He is irritatingly usually correct. He is also a fellow Evertonian but I would never dream of letting that colour my judgement. One of the North's top, top lawyers. Good luck striking out on your own mark - and team.
