Contact Katie
Katie McCann is the founder of Lowry Legal. Katie specialises in all aspects of family law, but with a particular interest in high net worth divorce, private children matters and wealth protection, including pre and post-nuptial agreements and cohabitation agreements for couples living together. She has a particular interest in acting for sports and media personalities, business owners, professionals and entrepreneurs.
Clients describe her as being a down to earth and no nonsense lawyer. Her number one aim with every client is to guide them through their legal journey and separation as smoothly as she can, being both sensitive to their needs, but being pragmatic and realistic at the same time.
Katie is the managing partner of specialist family law firm Lowry Legal, a trading name of Excello Law.
Lowry Legal was recognised in Legal 500 2025 as a leading firm in Manchester and ‘One to Watch’ in London recognising the firm’s expertise in family law including divorce and separation cases for high-net-worth individuals with overseas assets, trusts, and pensions.
