首先，英國魔法圈律所薪酬大比拼，高偉紳大幅漲薪、將司力達甩在身後。
Clifford Chance leaves Slaughters behind with whopping pay rises
Clifford Chance has given pay rises of over £20,000 to some of its associates, with 1PQEs potentially earning £95,000.
Trainee salaries are rising, too. First years will be on £43,500, up from £42,000. Second years will be on £49,000, up from £47,300.
The firm has adopted the same method of presenting its rises as Linklaters which, as RollOnFriday revealed in March, has decided to wrap up the bonus figure with the salary figure to give a total compensation figure. It makes CC and Links' numbers look very good compared to the rest of the Magic Circle, since Allen & Overy, Freshfields and Slaughter and May state bald salary figures, not inclusive of bonuses. (RollOnFriday)
高偉紳將一些律師的薪酬提高了2萬英鎊以上，而1年工作經驗律師的收入可能達到9.5萬英鎊。
實習律師的工資也增長了。實習第一年將從原來的4.2萬英鎊提高到4.35萬英鎊；第二年將從4.73萬英鎊提高到4.9萬英鎊。
根據RollOnFriday網站3月份透露，年利達已經決定將工資金額和獎金金額放到一起，來給出一個總的報酬金額，而現在高偉紳在提高待遇時也採用了同樣的方式。由於安理、富爾德和司力達只列出工資金額而不包括獎金金額，使得高偉紳和年利達的待遇數字和魔法圈的其他律所比起來顯得非常不錯。
RollOnFriday整理的數據：
其次，貝克·麥堅時倫敦負責人Paul Rawlinson成功當選該所全球主席。
London head Rawlinson takes chair post at global giant Baker & McKenzie
Baker & McKenzie has appointed its first British chairman with London head Paul Rawlinson winning an election to replace current chair Eduardo Leite.
Joining the firm in 1986, Rawlinson made partner in 1996 and has served as London head for the past three years. The IP lawyer currently sits on Baker & McKenzie's policy committee and has previously led the firm's global IP practice group for six years from 2004 to 2010.
Rawlinson won the role, edging out competition from Latin America chair Claudia Prado, EMEA chair Gary Senior and former Paris managing partner Eric Lasry who also put their names up for the top job.
Rawlinson, Senior's successor as London managing partner, played a key role in executing the FTSE strategy after building a strong relationships with the likes of Unilever and British American Tobacco. Baker & McKenzie said a sucessor to the London office head role would be appointed in September.
Rawlinson will take up the role on October 23 following the firm's annual meeting in Barcelona, replacing Eduardo Leite who was elected to the role in 2010. When his previous term ended in 2014, Leite had the option to stay on as global chair for between two and four years as there was no opposition. Leite is to step down by the end of October after the first year of his extension saw revenues down 4% to $2.43bn and profits sink 12% to $799m.
However under Rawlinson's management, London revenue at the firm rose 9% in the same period to £145m, as the firm's City headcount remained flat. (Legal Business)
在美國貝克·麥堅時國際律師事務所的全球主席選舉中，該所倫敦地區負責人Paul Rawlinson競選成功，將替任現在的主席Eduardo Leite，成為該所歷史上首個當選的英國人。
Rawlinson於1986年加入貝克·麥堅時，在1996年成為合伙人，並在過去三年擔任倫敦地區負責人。這名IP律師目前是貝克·麥堅時政策委員會的成員，而此前曾在2004-2010年的六年時間裡領導該所的全球IP業務組。
拉丁美洲地區主席Claudia Prado、歐洲、中東和北非（EMEA）地區主席Gary Senior和前巴黎管理合伙人Eric Lasry都參與了對全球主席職位的競爭，不過最終Rawlinson險勝。
Rawlinson繼Senior之後擔任倫敦的管理合伙人，通過和聯合利華、英美菸草這樣的大公司建立牢固的關係，在該所執行富時指數戰略上扮演著關鍵角色。貝克·麥堅時稱將會在九月份確定倫敦辦公室管理合伙人的新繼任人選。
在巴塞羅納的貝克·麥堅時年度會議之後，Rawlinson將於10月23日成為全球主席，替代Eduardo Leite。Leite在2010年被推選為該所全球主席，而到2014年任期屆滿後，在沒有發對意見的情況下，Leite可以選擇繼續留任2-4年。不過在他任期延長的第一年，貝克·麥堅時的收入下降了4%至24.3億美元，而利潤則下降了12%至7.99億美元，從而使得Leite將在10月底卸任。而在Rawlinson的管理下，同期倫敦地區的收入在人數沒有增加的情況下上升了9%至1.45億美元。
