Beyond Law Group welcomes experienced corporate solicitor, Alana Pearson, to its specialist corporate and commercial practice, Beyond Corporate.
Beyond Corporate continues to grow its award-winning corporate offering with the appointment of solicitor, Alana Pearson.
Beyond Corporate is home to the North-West’s number one team for national and international corporate clients, delivering commercially focused strategic and technical advice with a human perspective and emotional intelligence.
The team has led on some of the largest corporate transactions in the North West over the last 12 months and was recently named “Corporate Law Firm of the Year” at the NW Dealmakers Awards 2024, having been shortlisted among some of the region’s largest national and international law firms.
The business is committed to developing the careers of its young talent across all teams, as well as recruiting strong, experienced and rounded junior lawyers with the philosophy of not just being good at law but being good lawyers.
Alana will work across M&A matters and Private Equity transactions, as well as supporting on general corporate governance and reorganisations for companies.
Alana’s exceptional personality and multi-sector experience will help to develop the team’s reputation and its growing portfolio of clients, as well as supporting Beyond Corporate’s position as the go-to practice in Manchester for high growth scale up businesses.
Beyond Corporate is the specialist corporate and commercial practice of Beyond Law Group. With a current portfolio of three award-winning, specialist practices (Beyond Corporate Law, McAlister Family Law and Home Property Law), the Group’s vision is to build national boutique across both corporate/commercial and consumer legal services.
While each practice operates in different markets, they all share the same brand identity, infrastructure purpose and values of the Group, with a “one firm, three practice” approach.
Alana commented on her appointment: “I am delighted to be joining Beyond Corporate at a very exciting time for the practice and wider Group. The firm has ambitious growth plans and am very much looking forward to being part of the journey and contributing to its success.”
James Corlett, Managing Partner of Beyond Corporate, comments: “We are thrilled to welcome Alana to the practice’s corporate team. Alana’s experience, particularly in the high value start up and fast growth scale up space will complement the corporate team’s work across multiple sectors, enhancing our ability to provide high-quality M&A and corporate advisory support.”
Matt Fleetwood, Beyond Law Group’s Founder and Chief Executive adds: “It is fantastic that as a business we can attract talented legal professionals of Alana’s calibre. Her arrival comes at a particularly exciting time for the Group, our practices and our people as we continue to expand and bolster our specialist practices and strengthen the Group’s presence across the North West and further afield.”
