David Pester, managing partner of TLT Solicitors, has the air of a man who’s got it all figured out. Since 2000, the firm’s revenues have grown nearly six-fold, rising from a humble £10m to finally break into Legal Week‘s top 50 rankings this year with £58m.
Pester, who was elected to a fifth term at the helm in April, has been in charge for all but the first two of those years. Unsurprisingly, he is in relaxed mood when he meets Legal Week for lunch, whipping his tie off before the bread arrives.
