It set the market on fire this year after picking of the lion’s share of Cobbetts at the end of an explosive 18-month spell of consolidation, so it comes as no surprise that DWF has posted a 57.5% increase in half-year revenues to £93.6m from £59.4m this time last year.
According to the 984-lawyer, top 25 firm, over 10% (£6m) of its reported revenue growth is organic, the remainder stemming from the firm’s merger with Fishburns and acquisition of Cobbetts, both in February 2013. The firm said profits were also up significantly at the half-year stage, although it was unable to provide any figures yet.
