Government and infrastructure work helps Bircham Dyson Bell to 10% rise in income

Law firm Bircham Dyson Bell grew its income by 10% in the year to 31 May 2015 to £34.5m, thanks in part to a strong performance by its Government & Infrastructure department.

The firm said its charities, real estate, litigation and corporate and commercial teams had also performed well.

Bircham Dyson Bell increased its accounting profit for the period by 18% to £11.1m. It appointed four lawyers to the partnership with effect from 1 June 2015.

Jesper Christensen, Bircham Dyson Bell’s Managing Partner, said: “These are excellent financial results, with revenue increasing as a result of ensuring that client satisfaction remains at the heart of everything we do.

“The results are also further proof that the single equity structure adopted in June 2013, under which all partners have an equity stake in the business, has been a great success.”

Mark Jones, Chief Operating Officer, said: “We have every confidence in the ability of the firm and our people to build on our strong performance over the last 12 months and ensure our continued sustainable and profitable growth.”
