DWF LLP is a British law firm headquartered in Manchester with 12 offices across England, Scotland and Ireland. It trades as Resolution Law for its claimant services business. DWF started life as a four office practice in the North West of England. The firm has grown through a series of mergers and currently has around 2,500 staff and is the 20th-largest law firm in the UK measured by 2014 revenues. ==History== Davies Wallis was founded in 1977 in Liverpool,〔 and merged with Dodds Ashcroft in 1989.〔 A merger with Foysters in 1990〔 brought a Manchester office and a change of name to Davies Wallis Foyster, which was abbreviated to DWF in 2007,〔 shortly after the acquisition of Ricksons. The Ricksons acquisition added offices in Preston and Leeds. DWF opened a London office in 2008. A series of acquisitions in 2012 and 2013 added offices in Birmingham (Buller Jeffries), Newcastle (Crutes), Glasgow and Edinburgh (both Biggart Baillie), Bristol, Dublin and a second London office (Fishburns), before acquiring Cobbetts through a pre-pack administration. In 2014 DWF reported a 23% increase in net profit from £20.8 million in 2012/13 to £25.5 million in its first full year financial results following four mergers. DWF opened an office in Dubai in March 2015, the firm's first office outside of the British Isles. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「DWF LLP」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
