Like many of its counterparts, Trilegal has implemented several measures to curb attrition. One key initiative Gorthi highlights is a programme that allows qualified associates who go abroad for their masters degrees, to return without a break in seniority. “Many of the young lawyers returned to the firm,” he notes.
In addition to increased remuneration and transparent compensation rules, Trilegal introduced business tracking mechanisms “to identify and ease the burden of overworked associates”, says Gorthi. The law firm also offers wellness initiatives, such as mental health counselling, to support their team.
Having adopted these measures, Trilegal’s attrition rate has fallen to under 20%, which is comparable to the global average of 18% but low compared to most Indian law firms. “A significant portion of early-career attrition is due to individuals realising law isn’t for them, or wanting to pursue in-house or litigation roles,” Gorthi adds.
