The commitment of our people to deliver successful outcomes for our clients is just fantastic and we will continue to invest in a way that enables them to do that.
We increased our fee income across our areas of sector and practice area focus with some standout performances including a surge in corporate technology deals, particularly around digital platforms. We also achieved strong growth in areas such as patents, data and cybersecurity, private wealth, real estate and employment. Indeed, all of our core areas of legal services performed well.”
