What is a yearly salary for an attorny?

Answer 1

You would have to tell us what area of law, how much experience the attorney has, and where he is working. At the low end, a public-interest attorney (public defender, for example) might make $30,000 in a small town. He might start at $45,000 in a large city. A beginning corporate attorney might make $50,000 in a small city. In New York City, at a top firm, a beginning corporate attorney might make $200,000. Of course the higher the starting pay the more competitive the positions will be and the more stressful they will be. After 30 years of experience, or so, the range for a public defender might be from $60,000 to $100,000 depending on the city. As for a corporate attorney with 30 years experience, the sky is the limit. His salary (or hers) might easily go into the millions.
