London partnership prospects at the UK's top 30 law firms have dipped significantly this year, alongside a fall in partner promotions across almost all regions. The number of London partner promotions at the UK's 30 largest law firms by revenue dropped to 101 this year, down 17% on last year's figure of 121, with City promotions accounting for just over one quarter of all promotions across the group, down from 30% last year. In total, 370 partners were made up across the UK top 30, down 8% on last year's equivalent figure of 401. Asia has also seen a drop-off in promotions this year, after a tough period for the region in which work levels have fallen and many firms have cut jobs, with the total number of new Asia partners at top 30 firms down by one quarter to 30 from 40 in 2012.
