US firms look set to maintain their expansive form in 2007 – and their increasing demand for UK trainees – with a select group of America’s leading firms this month unveiling robust results for their London offices.

Leading the pack, White & Case achieved a 38% rise in UK revenue to bill $172.2m (£88.4m). London profits per equity partner (PEP) also rose 67% to hit $1.28m (£657,000), against $764,000 (£392,000) in 2005.
