Lovells has posted double-digit turnover growth as the euro’s dramatic rise over the financial year helped lift the firm’s sterling-denominated revenues.

Preliminary results for the 2008-09 year show that turnover jumped from £479m in 2007-08 to £531m, representing an 11% rise. The increase is largely attributed to the strength of the euro and dollar against the pound, which Lovells estimates boosted turnover by around 10%.
