FOCUS OF THE DAY: The Law Society has recommended a minimum salary for trainees, after a mandatory minimum was abolished last year by the Solicitors Regulation Authority. Chancery Lane today recommends that firms pay trainees a minimum salary of £20,276 in London and £18,183 outside the capital. This compares to the mandatory minimum of £18,590 and £16,650 scrapped by the SRA with effect from August 2014. Since then, employers have been required to pay only the national minimum wage, currently £6.70 an hour. Full story - The Law Society Gazette

FOCUS OF THE DAY: The slow pace of change in the legal profession means it is “not surprising” to see new types of firms, with completely different business models, winning market share, an authoritative survey has found, adding that “the market is ripe for change”. The 21st annual Smith & Williamson professional practices report also found that around half of the 95 firms of all sizes that were surveyed expected to see external investment become more a feature of law firm funding in the next five years, with private equity the most likely source, followed by multi-disciplinary practices with external resources.
