Legal Profession Dominates Latest Social Mobility Rankings

The Social Mobility Foundation reached its seventh year and it evaluated the ranks of law organizations in the UK this evaluation was based on many criteria like the engagement of young people, recruitment processes, apprenticeships,  and the career paths of many people who came from lower-income backgrounds.

The law firm of Browne Jacobson that comes first in last year’s list comes 2nd in the list of 2023. Linklaters and Allen & Overy got the sixth place and seventh place and Bryan Cave Leighton Paisner got the ninth spot. 

The other law firms that got a place in the top 20 list are: 

  • Womble Bond Dickinson (11th), 
  • DLA Piper (12th) 
  • Baker McKenzie (13th) 
  • Lewis Silkin (14th) 
  • Squire Patton Boggs (16th)
  • CMS (17th)  
  • Osborne Clarke (18th) 
  • Slaughter and May (19th) 
  • Weightmans (20th)

The chairperson of the Social Mobility Foundation Rt Hon Alan Milburn said, 

“Britain has a problem — compared with other developed nations, we have high levels of child poverty and low levels of social mobility. A child born into a low-income family today has just a one in eight chance of becoming a high income earner as an adult. While gender and racial inequality have received growing attention over recent years, social class has too often been the poor relation. It is time to put that right.”
