2025-07-16
Baker McKenzie has increased salaries for newly qualified lawyers in London by £5,000, taking the annual rate to £145,000.
The increase took effect in July and forms part of a wider review of associate compensation. The report also notes that pay across the associate scale was reviewed, although it does not list each revised salary band.
The change raises starting pay for London NQs while also adjusting the broader associate pay structure.
