The UK’s 100 largest law firms increased profit per equity partner (PEP) by an average of 13% during the last financial year, with near across-the-board hikes coming despite the rising costs of associate salaries.
On the back of double-digit revenue growth for more than half of the LB100 during 2023-24, average PEP rose to £844,000 after profitability had remained effectively flat during 2022-23.
