SAS Daniels report 20% half-year increase

Macclesfield law firm SAS Daniels billed more than £4m in the first half, up 20%.

It has seen a 40% rise in revenues from family work and 35% growth from property.

The firm, which has 70 staff including 23 partners, is aiming for revenues of £8m in the year to April, up on £7m last time.

Jeremy Orrell, who heads the corporate team, said: “This has been an excellent six months. Our real estate team has been working at capacity and the corporate team has completed 26 deals including three exceeding £10m each. The six monthly figures are indicative of sustained growth across the firm, which is incredibly encouraging.

“While the market is, without doubt, more buoyant than it was last year, our growth is tracking higher than sector averages and is driven by a clear strategy, underpinned by excellent client service.”

SAS Daniels has offices in Macclesfield, Stockport, Chester and Congleton.
