How much lawyer gets paid?

Answer 1

Depends on whether they are in private practice, a member of a large firm, a corporate lawyer, etc. Every two weeks is normal in government and corporations. In private practice it may be whenever you can get a client to pay you!

Answer 2

The salary range is vast, based on experience, legal firm association (if any), or public or private position (as well as country).

Civil lawyers are paid based on their hourly work for a given client, and in some locations by a flat fee for various legal actions. Personal injury and liability lawyers are paid a portion of the amount of the settlement (often one-third).

Entry level public defenders and nonprofit attorneys may starts as low as $30,000/year. Experienced partners at large firms may earn as much as $1 million/year or more.

I think the "average" for all American practicing lawyers of all ages, for all types of law, is about $70,000 U.S. Dollars per year. The median annual earnings of lawyers in 2006 was $102,470. However, we don't know if it has increased/decreased since then.

Answer 3

if you think all lawyers are rich, you're wrong... (with some exceptions) if u work for a firm (under a big name) you wont make 6 figures easily.. on the other hand.. if YOUR name is on the sign outside the office, then that lawyer will make 6 figures easily, starting out.. a lawyer will average $35,000 annually until they get a name for themselves

Some get payed like that or some get payed by every case they handle so it canbe even one case a month of $20,000 or so many cases or just one big case and get around $100,000 a month

Answer 5

It depends on what type of lawyer and experience. If a lawyer has only been professional for one year, they're expected to make between $46,000 and $70,000 a year. As experience increases, so does the salary. After nine years of experience, a lawyer can expect $115,000 a year. A lawyer with twenty years of experience a lawyer could be making $250,000 a year to $1,000,000 a year.

Answer 6

That depends on how they are practicing. They may receive a salary if the work for a corporation. A law firm will give them a draw against their earnings or percentages. If they are a sole practitioner, they get paid when their clients pay them.

Answer 7

They make around $100 per hour. The minimum charge is $100 so if you have a question that'll take one minute to answer it's frustrating to ask.

Answer 8

It really depends how good of a lawyer you are, but I'd say over 4,000 dollars.
