The Liverpool City Region has seen a wave of high-profile management buyouts (MBOs) over the past 12 months — and Glenville Walker has been at the centre of the action, advising on three of the four most significant transactions.

The corporate law firm played pivotal roles in the landmark deals involving DSG, Actua, and E3 Cube, transactions that have not only reshaped the future of those businesses but also signal renewed momentum in the region’s dealmaking market.

Industry observers point to the concentration of high-value buyouts as evidence of strong appetite among management teams to take ownership and drive growth. With Glenville Walker guiding the majority of these deals, the firm has established itself as one of the most influential players in the North West’s corporate advisory landscape.

“These were transformational moments for the businesses involved,” said Denise Walker, Managing Partner at Glenville Walker. “To be entrusted with three of the region’s most significant transactions reflects the confidence our clients have in our ability to deliver when it matters most.”

Alongside Denise Walker, Senior Associate Jayne Croft has been instrumental in navigating management teams and shareholders through the complexities of the buyout process, ensuring transactions were executed with pace and precision.

The firm’s prominent role in these headline-making MBOs underlines its market leadership and highlights broader confidence in the North West’s business environment. As activity in the region continues to grow, Glenville Walker is positioning itself as a trusted adviser to ambitious companies across the full corporate lifecycle.
