South east London and Kent firm Manak Solicitors has announced the acquisition of Bromley-based private client specialist Browns. It is the 17-solicitor firm’s second acquisition in two years.
Manak, founded by Surinder Singh Manak more than 20 years ago, began with one office in Orpington and has opened further in Gravesend and Biggin Hill. A Sevenoaks office opened in 2018.
Browns Solicitors was established by Christine Brown in 2011. By joining forces with Manak Solicitors, Browns’ clients will gain access to a broader range of legal services while continuing to receive the same high standard of care.
No financial details of the acquisition were revealed.
The deal follows Manak Solicitors’ integration of Ennis-Webb Solicitors in Biggin Hill last year. Manak commented: ‘This acquisition is a major step forward for us. Browns Solicitors has a long-standing reputation for excellence, and we are excited to add this to our existing teams. Our shared values and commitment to outstanding service make this a perfect fit, and we look forward to serving Browns’ clients with the same dedication and professionalism they have come to expect.’
Christine Brown, managing director of Browns, added: ‘After many successful years serving our clients, I am delighted that Browns Solicitors is joining forces with Manak. Their modern, client-first approach aligns perfectly with our own values, and I am confident that this transition will bring great benefits to our clients and team.’
