Ince & Co was a United Kingdom-based holding company with a core business in legal services, which was listed on the London Stock Exchange. The company also offered complementary services in accounting, financial services, consulting, and pensions advice. It was previously known as Ince Gordon Dadds LLP, following the acquisition of Ince & Co by Gordon Dadds Group LLP, and rebranded as The Ince Group in August 2019.
In 2022, The Ince Group ranked 47th in The Lawyer UK 200 list, with £100.2 million in revenue during the previous year. As of 2021, the firm operated in 9 countries and had 21 offices, and employed over 700 employees worldwide, including support staff. The chief executive officer was Donald Brown, while the non-executive chairman was Simon Howard.
In May 2023, Axiom DWFM purchased the firm out of administration and reverted its name to Axiom Ince. Axiom Ince then acquired Plexus Law from administration on 7th July 2023. In August 2023, the SRA suspended three directors of Axiom Ince — Pragnesh Modhwadia, Idnan Liaqat, and Shyam Mistry — amid allegations of a £64m fraud. On 3 October 2023, the Solicitors Regulation Authority intervened to close down Axiom Ince. The intervention is among the largest and potentially the most expensive in SRA's history.
