Browne Jacobson has posted record revenue of £137 million for FY25 - a 16% jump and its fourth consecutive year of double-digit growth.
The growth was fuelled by the firm’s highest-ever 13 lateral partner hires and investment across the UK and Ireland.
Browne Jacobson has kept its growth streak alive with a record-breaking year, posting £137 million in revenue in FY25 - up 16% on last year.
It’s the firm’s fourth straight year of double-digit growth, and more confirmation that the top 50 firm’s steady expansion across the UK and Ireland is paying off.
Growth mode
This year, Browne Jacobson doubled down on its UK and Ireland expansion, making 13 lateral partner hires - the most in its history. That included the addition of a five-strong team from EY Legal last May to boost its London tech practice.
The firm advised on some standout deals, too, including the sale of WH Smith in March, and guiding the company behind retailer The Range on its Homebase acquisition in November.
The firm has been investing in tech and has piloted AI tools Harvey and Thomson Reuters’ CoCounsel. In October, it also overhauled its parental leave policy, offering up to 26 weeks, including 13 on full pay - a major upgrade from the previous two-week allowance for paternity leave.
