UAE firm Habib Al Mulla is set to align its career framework and development systems with merger partner Baker & McKenzie's as the firms gear up for their combination this July. The Dubai-based firm will adopt Bakers' more stringent training and development programme, bringing in a more rigorous career path for its lawyers, who will follow Bakers' structure. This will include Bakers' partnership structure. The model will be introduced in stages after the tie-up goes live, with a six-month bedding-down period in which Habib's current ratings system will continue to run internally. Appraisals for all of the firm's lawyers – including partners – have already been tightened in the run-up to the union.
