“Another fantastic financial result” at Howes Percival with double-digit turnover jump
Howes Percival has hailed "another fantastic financial result" with the law firm reporting its fourth consecutive double-digit turnover rise.
The firm, which has offices in Cambridge, Leicester, Manchester, Milton Keynes, Northampton, Norwich and Oxford, has posted a turnover of £46.8m for the year to 31 March 2026, compared to £41.7m 12 months ago.
In the last four years, the firm has added 25 partners and increased the number of other fee earners by 62, alongside investments in AI, training and leadership development and office infrastructure including opening an office in Oxford, the refurbishment of the Leicester office and moves to new offices for the Manchester, Cambridge and Milton Keynes teams.
Chairperson Geraint Davies said: "This is another fantastic financial result for the firm and reflects the hard work we've put in over the last five to ten years. In the last 12 months we have continued to invest heavily in our people, the technology they need to support them and in producing high quality office spaces for them and our clients.
"The significant growth which we continue to achieve has allowed us to make these investments whilst also continuing to maintain our profitability.
"As a partnership we are able to invest for the long-term and prioritise organic growth. We have also been able to remain fully focused on the right things: client service, recruiting and retaining the right people and nurturing a unique culture of curiosity, collaboration and innovation.
"This culture makes Howes Percival a place where people want to work and will be the key to our success in the future as we take advantage of the opportunities that will arise in a rapidly changing sector.
"You can see the return year-on-year in our results, but we see it every day in the way our teams keep stepping up and delivering a fantastic service for our clients."
Turnover has now increased 78 per cent in total over the last four years.
