Anybody else at the opening address by CJ menon on monday? Will the new "legal technician" role be staffed by fts or even the new suss law school?
Overall I think its positive news as we'll be getting additional support.

Take it with sal

Take it with a lot of salt. Remember that it's also his colleagues who tried to propose scaled fees which didn't went well. A bit too activist imo

What is the difference between mid size and big four?

Is it true that once you are in mid size firm you cannot move to big four?

never heard of him

for all his comments about chinese deals in sg, he's clearly not working in the right firms lol

黔驴技穷

Well right firms or not, you must admit that a non European, and a chink no less, being hired by Gide loyrette is pretty darn impressive.

lawyer's salary for middle sized firms?
 

Hi,

Does anyone know what the qualifying salary for new associates are in middle sized firms e.g. Eversheds Harry Elias and Tan Rajah & Cheah, and how these may compare to qualifying salaries for associates of the big 4?

Thanks!

Eversheds Harry Elias has aligned the Singapore payscales with our UK counterparts. NQ associates now start on SGD8k.

Do you mind sharing where this information is from? I thought their NQs start at SGD5k, last I heard.
