How much does a first year lawyer make?

Answer 1

I wouldn't listen to the Pay Scale garbage.

A typical lawyer right out of law school that didn't fail in all his classes (i.e below 70%) and knows what he or she is doing should be looking at around a 6 fig salary. This can depend where you work, what you specialize in and if you work for private our public sector. (Private pays more)

Answer 2

How much money a lawyer makes in his or her first year greatly depends on what type of law the individual is practicing and also where the lawyer is working (private firm, public defense, etc.).
