Aliter Capital invests to ‘accelerate’ BBS Law’s ambitious growth plans

An investment in a prominent law firm aims to expand its reach and service offerings for high-growth clients nationwide.

Manchester and London-based BBS Law has secured investment from Aliter Capital LLP, a UK-focused investor in high-growth SMEs.

BBS, which serves SMEs, entrepreneurs, and high-net-worth individuals, offers a broad range of legal services, including corporate, property, employment, family law and litigation.

Over the past two years, BBS has grown through the successful completion of two acquisitions and Aliter’s investment and expertise will support BBS’s national expansion, helping to further scale the firm’s footprint and diversify its offerings.

Dov Black, BBS Law managing partner and head of corporate finance, said: “This deal provides a fantastic opportunity to build national coverage across the UK and create a differentiated brand within the market, while remaining resolutely focused on meeting the needs of our core client base.

“We believe strongly the added support of Aliter brings significant experience and resources to help us accelerate the next stage of BBS’s development.”

James Davies, Aliter’s investment director, added: “Aliter is the ideal partner for BBS, bringing a track record of driving growth, access to capital for further expansion and specialist knowledge and experience of BBS’s main target markets. 

“BBS is a great business with highly compelling characteristics including a resilient business model, a range of complementary services to suit its customer base, long-standing customer relationships, a footprint in the attractive areas of Manchester and London and a track record of organic growth and successfully integrating bolt-on acquisitions.”

The BBS advisory team was led by Stuart Whitehead of Edwards Veeder.
