Katten has increased annual salaries for newly qualified lawyers in London from £125,000 to £135,000.
 
The £10,000 rise applies to the London NQ rate. The firm is also adjusting salary levels across its associate ranks, although the available report does not list every revised band.
 
The move places Katten’s London starting salary alongside other firms paying £135,000 to newly qualified lawyers, including BCLP and Reed Smith.
