A Norwich law firm’s turnover has increased by 10pc on a pro-rata 12-month basis in 2024.

Howes Percival, which has an office in the city, posted turnover of £31.4m for the 11 months to March 31 this year, as the firm transitioned its traditional company year-end from April 30 in response to tax changes.

The result follows a period of growth, which included a double-digit turnover increase in 2023.

Geraint Davies, Howes Percival's chairman, said: "We are absolutely delighted with the firm's performance in 2024, highlighted by another double-digit increase in turnover.

"The last 12 months have seen a new Howes Percival office opening in Oxford, growth in new instructions as we are increasingly viewed as a go-to firm in all our key markets, and ongoing success in terms of attracting the best legal talent to join us." 

Howes Percival has created more than 50 brand new roles in the past two years and increased its number of partners to 63.
