Osborne Clarke (OC) has unveiled a 19% boost to its partner profits during 2004-05 as the Bristol giant continues its post technology crash revival.

OC posted total profits of £24m, with average profits per equity partner (PEP) up to £360,000 from last year’s £303,000. The result is equivalent to a 19% rise in average partner profits and is the second year running that PEP has risen sharply at the top 50 UK firm.
