Money WreathAbracadabra! We know this firm is trying to escape its Magic Circle designation, but this money ring is the only magic circle its associates care about right now. Freshfields just announced a salary increase for its U.S. associates, and they’re thrilled.

Now that Linklaters and Freshfields have entered the arena, it’s time for other firms like Allen & Overy and Clifford Chance to step up to the plate with bigger, better associate salaries.

Here’s what the new salary scale looks like at Freshfields, thanks to Davis Polk:

  • Class of 2021: $215,000
  • Class of 2020: $225,000
  • Class of 2019: $250,000
  • Class of 2018: $293,500
  • Class of 2017: $335,000
  • Class of 2016: $360,500
  • Class of 2015: $381,000
  • Class of 2014+: $396,500

Like its peer firms, associates at Freshfields will see their new salaries in their March 15th paychecks, retroactive to January 1. Congratulations!

Remember everyone, we depend on your tips to stay on top of this stuff. So when your firm matches, please text us (646-820-8477) or email us (subject line: “[Firm Name] Matches”).
