Shoosmiths has increased salaries for newly-qualified (NQ) lawyers in Northern Ireland by nearly six per cent to £37,500.
The UK firm has upped NQ pay by eight per cent — from £90,000 to £97,000 — in London, by five per cent regionally in England to £63,000 and by around four per cent to £57,000 in Scotland.
The increases in base salaries are effective from November as part of the firm’s pay review.
Chair Kirsten Hewson said: “At Shoosmiths, we’re known for being a great place to work, with bright, engaged, high-performing teams that deliver excellence for our clients.
“Cultivating that positive environment starts with ensuring our junior colleagues thrive and excel.
“We are very pleased to offer a salary increase as a part of our holistic approach to developing our lawyers, affirming our dedication to training aspiring solicitors in a culture that’s supportive and ambitious.”
