CANDIDATE ATTORNEY AND PUPILLAGE REMUNERATION PROPOSALS OUT FOR COMMENT
- 12 August 2023
- Legal Practice Council
- SA Legal Academy
The Legal Practice Council has gazetted a notice calling for input by 11 September 2023 on minimum remuneration proposals for:
- candidate attorneys under practical vocational training contracts, and
- those in pupillage under the supervision of practising advocates.
The proposal for candidate attorneys takes account of:
- the different conditions and challenges faced when contracted to firms in urban and rural settings
- the prevailing economic climate, and
- the ‘diversity of law firms taking on candidate legal practitioners’.
Bearing in mind that, according to the notice, pupils are not employees, it is proposed that:
- a levy should be imposed on practising advocates, and
- a fund established from which pupils are then remunerated.
