Our Firm

Myerson is a Top 200 UK Law Firm as recognised by The Lawyer. We are also proud to be ranked ‘Top Tier’ by The Legal 500, commended by The Times ‘Best Law Firms and accredited as ‘World Class’ in the Best Companies League Table 2023.

We are one of the largest independent law firms in the North West, a bold claim we are proud to make because it’s been hard won. No instant growth through acquisition or merger. Instead, growth earned from our day-to-day endeavours, an entrepreneurial approach to doing business and a rock-solid reputation. We recruit staff who are motivated by our core values and have an affinity to our collegiate and independent ethos.

In September 2024 Myerson became a 100% employee-owned business. We are incredibly proud to be the first and only law firm in the Manchester market to make this positive step. Being employee owned means we have taken steps to safeguard our independence, stability and people first culture for years to come.

The Team

Our Corporate team provide the highest level of strategic advice to a large portfolio of commercial organisations. The team has grown in size over recent years and continues to go from strength to strength, previously winning Corporate (and Commercial) Team of the Year at the Manchester Legal Awards. The team has once again been nominated for this award in 2026. and has recently retained its status as Tier 1 Legal 500 practice, being commended for offering first class, commercial legal advice.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
