Ashurst partner Geoffrey Green, talking to Legal Business last year. And 2005/06 was the year when Ashurst finally came of age as a confidently branded, progressive law firm in its own right – as opposed to being a perennial US merger target. A focus on improving its profitability has paid huge dividends, with Ashurst making up ground on the Magic Circle and establishing clear blue water between itself and rivals in its immediate peer group. Average profits now stand at £701,000, up 24% from last year. Encouragingly, the firm has seen revenues rise by 28% at the half-year mark of the current financial year, which is expected to translate into another significant profits increase for 2006/07. Ashurst has been extremely active in the laterals market, taking 15 partners internationally. In December, the firm announced that it was set to launch in Stockholm with (L-R) James Baxter and Vanessa Pawsey of Legal Business, Simon Bromwich and the takeover of three-partner AJB Bergh, a move driven by the Geoffrey Green of Ashurst, with Richard Meddelton of The Royal Bank of Scotland HIGHLY COMMENDED has quietly re-established its position as a leading BURGES SALMON UK law firm with a reinvigorated City office.

    Autumn 2017 Budget: period drama or zombie apocalypse?, Practical Law UK Articles... Autumn 2017 Budget: period drama or zombie apocalypse? by Practical Law Tax Articles | Published on 24-Nov-2017 | UK, United Kingdom Leading tax experts gave us their views on the Autumn 2017 Budget. (Free access.) We asked leading tax practitioners for their views on the Autumn 2017 Budget. An overview of their comments is set out below; click on a name to read the comment in full. For the main measures of interest to businesses, see Legal update, Autumn 2017 Budget: key business tax announcements. For coverage of the implications of the Autumn 2017 Budget for a range of practice areas and sectors, see Practical Law, Autumn 2017 Budget. Setting the scene Despite an almost effervescent political delivery by "Spreadsheet Phil" (complete with comedic props from his co-star diva, Mrs May), the Autumn 2017 Budget was, barring one or two eye-raising exceptions, not edge of the seat viewing. Simon Skinner, Travers Smith LLP "was left with an impression of lots of words but not that much substance". Geraint Jones, Berg Kaprow Lewis LLP described it as "a rather timid affair" As ever, context is all. This was a minority government on the eve of the biggest destabilising global political event in recent history. And an opposition party biting at its heels with unanticipated vigour. Further, despite Fiscal Phil's audition for the lead role in a comedy caper, the figures belong in a disaster movie. There is surely only so much film star glamour to be mustered whilst uttering the words "[a]nd regrettably our productivity performance continues to disappoint".
