THE LONDON office of Shearman & Sterling remains the leading light within the firm in terms of profit, with average UK PEP some 20 per cent higher than the firm’s global average.

Shearman London managing partner Kenneth MacRitchie explained that, while London had enjoyed three previous years of rapid growth, 2005 had been “a consolidation year”. However, the firm did recruit structured finance partner Julian Tucker from Allen & Overy, assisting its bid to become a leading full-service offering.

Shearman operates a modified lockstep with 11 steps, although the majority of partners plateau at step nine. Progress through the first three steps is automatic.
