  • Why Firms Still Need to Be Careful in Good Markets 21St September 2015 Authors: Tony Williams; Steve Cottee
    Beware of the upturn – why firms still need to be careful in good markets 21st September 2015 Authors: Tony Williams; Steve Cottee As the results for 2014-15 show a sustained if gradual improvement in law firms financial performance, together with the news of Gateley's successful IPO it is tempting to assume that the worst is now behind law firms after a gruelling period following the financial crisis. However, law firms need to be wary of the upturn and ensure that their firm is well placed to weather the storms that will buffet the legal market for many years to come. In our view there are six factors that law firms need to pay particular attention to if they are going to survive and thrive over the next few years. Cash Firms have increased their long term debt (over one year) from £5.75bn in 2010 to £7.35bn in 2014. Conversely short term debt, mostly overdrafts, has reduced from £2.4bn in 2011 to £1.8bn in 2014. Firms have however received a very significant cash infusion by way of the estimated £1bn of capital injected by fixed share partners to meet the recent requirements of HMRC. Banks still see law firms as a relatively good risk but a few high profile failures may see credit committees becoming far less accommodating and the cost of facilities rise. Crucially the capital injection from fixed share partners many firms benefitted from last year will not be available this year, at a time when arguably there will be an even greater need for cash than before.

    Management partner of the year WINNER Peter Crossley Squire Sanders Hammonds Securing the fi rm’s future and leading it into a US merger Since he became managing partner in 2004, Peter Crossley has led Hammonds through one of the most turbulent periods in its history with considerable skill. It has not been easy, as Crossley was forced to improve the fi rm’s poor fi nancial position while balancing the twin challenges of maintaining a national network and growing an international footprint. Throughout, Crossley has maintained not only the steady nerve that refl ects his litigation background but also a demeanour that has won him many admirers in the market. Peter Crossley of Squire Sanders Hammonds (centre) with John Securing a merger in 2010 with US fi rm Squire, Sanders & Dempsey Garwood of Canary Wharf Group on behalf of Challenor has now transformed the UK fi rm’s international offering and Crossley can take much of the credit for the tie-up. The deal went live in January of this year with Crossley becoming head of Europe in the merged fi rm, which has more than 1,400 lawyers spread across 37 offi ces. Putting Hammonds on a fi rmer footing and delivering an eye-catching US merger makes him a worthy winner of Management Partner of the Year. HIGHLY COMMENDED MICHAEL LINGENS TIM EYLES Speechly Bircham Taylor Wessing Since he took over as managing partner in 1998, Tim Eyles has played a central role in a year of change for Michael Lingens has been the driving force behind Taylor Wessing, bringing considerable vision to his fi rst Speechly Bircham’s push towards the top 50 of the full year in charge.
