Bryan Cave Leighton Paisner (BCLP) has cut its London-based newly-qualified (NQ) lawyers’ pay, in the latest move by a firm to shore up its finances by trimming junior lawyers’ compensation.

The firm has cut pay for NQs at its U.K. offices by 2.5%. Its next intake of NQs will be paid £78,000 a year, down from its previous rate of £80,000.
