Centaur Media is looking to sell off The Lawyer magazine and financial services titles Money Marketing and Mortgage Strategy in a bid to “simplify” its business.

The b2b publisher has appointed Livingstone Partners to advise on the potential sale of The Lawyer, which moved from being a weekly to a monthly magazine last year as the company turned its focus on digital.

It has also appointed Cavendish Corporate Finance to advise on the sale of its financial services division, including weekly newspaper Money Marketing and financial website Mortgage Strategy.
