Olswang has become the latest law firm to announce a move toward a merit-driven structure. Under the firm's new system, which goes into effect on Sept. 1, associates will progress through three levels depending on performance and ability, rather than a traditional lockstep model. Olswang's move reflects a wider shift in the United Kingdom's legal market, as more law firms replace or modify the associate lockstep system in their U.K. offices and other locations.

Olswang has become the latest law firm to move from a post-qualification experience (PQE) model for associate pay in favor of a merit-driven structure.
The new regime will come into effect on Sept. 1 and will see associates progress through three levels depending on performance and ability, rather than a traditional lockstep model, which sees career progression directly linked to years of PQE.
