National Minimum Wage update

The Government has announced the annual national minimum wage increases for 2025, in acceptance of the Low Pay Commission’s (LPC) recommendations.

From 1 April 2025 the following rates will apply:

  • 21 and over - £12.21 (up 77p from £11.44)
  • 18 - 20 - £10 (up £1.40 from £8.60)
  • Apprentices - £7.55 (up £1.15 from £6.40)

This is the first step to a unified single rate for all adults, and the largest rise on record for the under 21s.

I have worked with Ortolan Legal since 2010 and used their services extensively. They have provided corporate and commercial legal advice and we have also drawn on their capability in the areas of employment law, dispute resolution and property law. What makes them so different is their ability consistently to deliver commercially focussed and high quality advice at a price point which simply cannot be matched by other law firms. They aim to strip out unnecessary overhead costs, concentrate on the quality of their core service and pass on these cost savings to their clients. It works.
