Four out of five newly qualified lawyers retained
About four out of five newly qualified lawyers (NQs) at commercial law firms were retained after qualification last year, according to research by the Chambers Student Guide. The survey, of 2,253 NQs at 123 commercial law firms, reveals that retention rates are continuing to recover, with the second consecutive rise. Reynolds Porter Chamberlain and DWF kept on all their NQs, while Mills & Reeve and Dickinson Dees had the lowest retention rates—offering positions to just over a third of their NQs.
