Law firm Allen & Overy have increased their revenue. That is good news in these unstable and challenging times. Though growth is not where many would like it to be, yet positive growth is still a good thing to hear. Bloomberg reports that their profit per equity partner, a key gauge of law firm profitability, was stable at 1.1 million pounds during the last financial year. The firm attributes its performance to consolidation, five years of investments, and the opening of 14 new offices.
Wim Dejonghe, the firm’s managing partner, said in a phone interview, “it is a combination of looking for revenue growth, combined with efficiencies that we’re introducing into the business, that started delivering long-term growth.â€
