History

Established in 1947.

The firm was established in 1947 by Mr Canter (known as «MJ»), who was an intermediate judge at the Nuremberg Trials and a close friend of the then Attorney General and chief Nuremberg prosecutor, Lord Shawcross.

MJ set up his practice at 15 Victoria Street in Liverpool City Centre in 1947. At this time the firm specialised in litigation and conveyancing. After a few years, MJ merged the practice with Ian Levin and Milton Mannheim. The merged practice operated from separate addresses until moving into Temple Court in Victoria Street in 1957 which was the location of the firm until 1985.

In 1961, Ian Levin’s brother Harry joined the firm as a partner. He became a leading industrial law specialist and was well known for his work in connection with dock accidents. He was affectionately known as «the dockers’ lawyer».

In 1967, Alan Berg («AB») joined as a partner. He was a successful and highly respected criminal advocate and succeeded Myer Canter as senior partner.
