Freshfields to go live with new associate pay model

Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer will implement its revamped associate career development model in London from spring 2010 with the system to be rolled out globally from 2011. The so-called career milestones system has come following consultation with associates, making Freshfields the latest firm to move away from using post-qualification experience (PQE) to assess development. Allen & Overy, Denton Wilde Sapte and Norton Rose have already stopped using PQE, while CMS Cameron McKenna and Simmons & Simmons are understood to be conducting reviews of their development systems.
