DECHERT’S LONDON office performed well across the board, with revenue up by a staggering 30 per cent to $79.8m (£45.6m), while average PEP also rose by an impressive 23 per cent.

London continued to ride high off its plum role advising Travelex on its £1.6bn sale to Apax Partners. But it was the financial services group that saw the most impressive growth, especially within hedge funds, with gross fees hitting £10m. This growth comes from a standing start in 1997 and was assisted by the hire of partner Andrew Hougie from Clifford Chance in May 2005.

The European network also expanded rapidly with the opportunistic hire of 32 lawyers from Coudert Brothers.

Dechert operates a modified lockstep.
