Howes Percival records 22 per cent turnover rise in 2025

The result is the third double-digit turnover rise in three years and represents an increase of over 77 per cent in the last four years.

The growth has been across all practice areas, with the Corporate and Banking team and newly formed Commercial, Technology and Intellectual Property (CTIP) team seeing growth between 27- 29 per cent, Commercial Property 26 per cent and Private Client 17 per cent.

The firm has created over 100 new roles in the last four years and increased the number of partners to 72, alongside investments in IT and office infrastructure including opening an office in Oxford, the refurbishment of the Leicester office and new offices for the Cambridge team, as part of its ongoing investment and growth plan.

Howes Percival Chair, Geraint Davies, said: “This is a fantastic result and testament to the hard work our whole team has put in over the last 12 months. Growth was a key goal.

“It enables us to keep investing in developing our service to clients and in making Howes Percival a place where talented people want to work and enjoy working. All our teams have developed three-year growth plans based on the target of £50m turnover by 2028. Currently we are ahead of those plans.

“We will continue to invest in improving every aspect of the service we provide to clients. Developments in tech and AI will transform the way that legal services are delivered over the next few years, and we are investing significantly in these areas.”
