Hill Dickinson's origins can be traced back to 1810, with the establishment of a Liverpool legal practice by the firm's founder, Edward Morrall. John Edward Gray Hill joined the firm in 1865. John Dickinson (1847–1907) became a partner in 1872, and the firm traded as Duncan, Hill & Dickinson. It established itself as a leading maritime law office, and represented the White Star Line in connection with the sinking of the RMS Titanic and Cunard Line in respect of the sinking of RMS Lusitania which was torpedoed by a German U-boat on 7 May 1915.
In 1927 Edith Berthen joined the firm as one of the first women in England and Wales to qualify as a solicitor. In 1931 one of the firm's solicitors, Hector Munro, represented William Herbert Wallace in connection with his trial and subsequent appeal against his conviction for the murder of his wife Julia in their home in Wolverton Street in Liverpool's Anfield district. His conviction was later overturned by the Court of Criminal Appeal, the first instance in British legal history where an appeal had been allowed after re-examination of evidence (see R v Wallace).
Partner William Goffey (known as WG) started his career in 1901 at Hill Dickinson's 10 Water Street office. He became senior partner in 1950 and continued to practice until shortly before his death in 1979 at the age of 94. As the son of a ship owning family who operated sailing barques from Liverpool under the name Goffey & Co, much of his practice was Admiralty and related work. Goffey acted for Cunard Steam Ship Co. Limited in relation to the 1942 collision between the ocean liner RMS Queen Mary and HMS Curacoa, which resulted in the sinking of the latter with great loss of life.
Hill Dickinson celebrated 200 years in business in 2010, expanding their international offices in Hong Kong. Iin 2013, it became the first law firm to be accredited under the prestigious 'Investors in Diversity' scheme for its commitment to supporting diversity in the workplace.
Today, Hill Dickinson is a leading and award-winning international commercial law firm with more than 850 people including 185 partners and legal directors, with offices in Liverpool, Manchester, London, Leeds, Newcastle, Piraeus, Singapore, Monaco and Hong Kong.
