International law firm DAC Beachcroft has announced its provisional, unaudited results for the year ended 30 April 2026, delivering another year of strong financial performance.
DACB's total turnover for FY26 reached £385 million, representing 10 per cent year-on-year growth. Profit before tax increased by 20 per cent to £91 million, while profit per member exceeded £800k, continuing an upward trajectory.
The results reflect the strength of the firm's business across its core sectors and practice groups, alongside continued investment in its people, technology and international platform.
Commenting on the firm's performance, Managing Partner Helen Faulkner said, "These results demonstrate the continued strength of DACB and the confidence our clients place in us across our markets. We have delivered sustainable growth while investing in the areas that matter most to our future: our people, our sector focus, areas where we have a strong reputation, our international reach and the responsible use of technology.
"Growth this year has been broad-based, with strong contributions from teams across the firm. We have continued to support clients on complex and important matters, while making disciplined choices about where we invest to build a resilient, ambitious business for the long term.
"A particular highlight has been the continued expansion of our international platform. In the United States, we opened an office in Miami and added new insurance coverage teams there and in Los Angeles. Our upcoming launch in the Dubai International Financial Centre will also mark a significant milestone as our first office in the Middle East.
"We have also continued to strengthen key areas of expertise through strategic lateral hires and promotions across all sectors and practice areas, including Insurance, Health, Corporate and Real Estate. Just as importantly, our culture remains a real differentiator and central to our ability to attract, retain and develop talented people.
"As we look ahead, DACB is in a strong position, with real momentum. We will continue to invest carefully and confidently in the people, technology, sectors and geographies that support our growth ambitions and the evolving needs of our clients."
