KIRKPATRICK & LOCKHART Nicholson Graham in London is a UK LLP for regulatory reasons, but the equity partners are also members of a Delaware LLP. Consequently the firm operates a single profit pool, with profit distributed via the latter LLP.

The legacy Nicholson Graham & Jones ran a modified lockstep. This was set to run for a two-year transitional period after the merger, during which equity partners were guaranteed payment at their respective lockstep levels.

This expires in January 2007. UK partners will then be remunerated on the firmwide merit basis.

At just £308,000, Kirkpatrick’s average PEP was among the lowest of all the US firms’ last year.
