RosilloComms is the only specialist legal PR agency based in Manchester, working with legal professionals to build sustained, high-quality visibility. We regularly secure placements in national and international outlets including The Times, Financial Times and BBC Online, and in all the legal and industry press, with campaigns delivering over 150 media placements for a client in 2025.
Our focus is simple: positioning your expertise in front of the audiences that matter most, wherever they are, through targeted, consistent media engagement that supports reputation, credibility and instruction as part of a broader legal PR agency service.
Why not? Manchester is, after all, the home of industry, ideas and straight-talking and that carries through into how we approach legal PR. We are northern and proud to provide all three – and our clients benefit from it.
Choosing a Manchester-based agency is a practical advantage, not a compromise. There is no London commute to factor into every meeting, no layers of account management and no unnecessary friction. You are working directly with a senior specialist, making briefing, planning and execution quicker and more efficient.
Being based in the North also brings a sharper understanding of the regional legal market. Many firms are competing for visibility beyond London, and that requires more than a capital-centric approach. We combine strong connections with northern media and business publications with established relationships across the national, international and industry press, ensuring your coverage is both targeted and far-reaching.
There is also a clear commercial benefit. Our rates reflect a Manchester cost base rather than London overheads, without there being any compromising on results. The outcome is a more responsive, focused and cost-effective approach to legal PR, grounded in how the market actually operates. Founded in 2020, we have spent over five years working exclusively with legal professionals and disputes specialists.
Our location does not define the reach of our work. Based in MediaCityUK, next door to the BBC, we are well positioned within one of the UK’s key media hubs. From here, we secure consistent coverage for clients in leading national and international outlets including The Times, Financial Times and BBC Online, ensuring your insights are seen by clients, referrers and the wider market.
A core part of our work is also focused on the legal and financial press, where reputation is often shaped. We regularly place commentary and bylined articles in the Law Society Gazette, Law360 and FT Adviser. These are the publications read by your peers, counterparties and professional referrers – the audiences that directly influence instruction.
The approach is deliberately joined up, combining media coverage with social media and website content to reinforce law firms’ visibility across multiple channels. National media builds broad credibility and visibility, while targeted legal and financial coverage reinforces your position within the market. Together, they ensure your expertise is visible in the places that matter most, supported by content strategies that have delivered measurable results, including a 100% increase in website traffic for a client.

Can a Manchester-based agency secure coverage in national publications?
To put it bluntly – of course it can. And it is important to address this directly. Location does not determine media reach. RosilloComms has secured hundreds of placements for clients in The Times, Financial Times, BBC Online and The Wall Street Journal. The relationships that matter are with journalists and editors, not with a postcode. We work from our base, we are not limited by it.
Which publications cover the legal sector in Manchester and the North West?
Key publications covering the legal sector across Manchester and the North West include Manchester Evening News (Business), Insider Media (North West), Place North West, The Business Desk, The Yorkshire Post (Business) and BQ Magazine. These outlets play an important role in covering firm activity, appointments, deals and the wider professional services market.
Alongside these, legal publications such as Law Society Gazette and Law360, as well as the national press including The Times and Financial Times, all contribute to shaping reputation and visibility. A well-structured legal PR strategy typically spans regional, trade, national, international and industry publications, ensuring consistent and meaningful coverage across all the audiences that matter.
