February's turnover up 4.1 per cent since January, says ONS

Legal industry turnover rose to £3.13 billion in February, up 4.1 per cent on January, according to the Office of National Statistics. January’s figures had been down following the highest billing month on record in December 2020, though February’s figures represent an increase of 11.4 per cent against February 2020. Kingsley Napley Julie Norris welcomed the “calm progress” but urged firms to “carefully consider plans in light of staff morale and mental health, after a year of remote working”.
