After the exodus of recent years, Morgan Cole stabilised things somewhat last year. In 2002, the firm had 78 partners and revenues of £43.1m. By 2005 this had slumped to 54 partners bringing in £27m. By the end of the 2005 financial year the firm had lost just two more partners and boosted turnover 13.7 per cent to £30.7m, while average PEP had risen to a slightly more respectable £130,000.

Client wins in 2004 such as Tesco and Severn Water suggest that the rot has stopped and that better times may be ahead for this M4 firm.
