Manley Turnbull is an independent solicitor's practice specialising in dispute resolution. Independence means that the firm can provide advice about sensitive disputes which may involve professionals or others within the usual network or locality of the individual or business concerned. Many clients are from outside the Gloucestershire area, where we are based, providing confidence in both neutrality and independence.
Katy Manley is the founder of the practice. She has been at the forefront of this emerging niche specialist area of practice. She was instrumental in the creation of the national network of like minded legal representatives who are members of the Professional Negligence Lawyers Association ('PNLA').

Manley Turnbull was founded by Katy Manley. She trained in London and qualified as a solicitor in 1989 moving to the west country in 1991. She was made an equity partner in a leading Bristol practice in 1995 becoming Head of the Professional Negligence team. She remained with this firm until the launch of Manley Turnbull in 2006.
Katy Manley was on the panel of a building society in the early 1990's bringing professional negligence claims against solicitors and surveyors. Like many other members of the PNLA Lender Claims Group, which she chairs, she is well placed to act for lenders in this type of claim offering experience from the past.
Changes introduced by the Legal Aid Sentencing and Punishment of Offenders Act 2012 ('LASPO') to Conditional Fee Agreements, Damages Based Agreements and After the Event insurance will mean that some solicitors and their clients may decide that there should be independent legal advice on the proposed retainer and options for funding litigation.
