There's quite a big range. A 30-year-old male lawyer (or a 28-year-old female) would draw more than $8,000 in one of the big four firms. In an offshore firm, the same lawyer would be drawing close to or more than $10,000 depending on the firm and where he is based. In the medium-sized firms, they will be drawing between $7,000 to $8,000 and of course, the remainder working in even smaller firms will draw less than that but still easily above $5,000. By extrapolation, the average male lawyer should be earning about $7,000 at 30 (28 for a female).

I don't know enough 35-year-old lawyers to comment on their average pay.
