Data from Mahlab Recruitment shows that Australian lawyers’ salaries have risen by an average of 3.4 per cent in 2015, compared with 3.8 per cent growth in 2014. A Mahlab report also notes that the salaries of partners at some leading law firms have fallen significantly in the last three years. Meanwhile, the growing trend for top law firms to merger with offshore peers has prompted some partners to leave and join smaller firms that have stayed independent.
