From what I heard, maybe around 15k-16k. Not sure about the 17k figure. But the point is that even 3rd year associates can earn more than a Big4 junior partner, and with better benefits to boot.

Last time reported in the news and a fam court judgment, B4 JP is 15k. Some lawyer divorce case. Name redacted but we all know who.

But that was few years ago. Since then JP comp should've bumped up by a few k at least ba

For those who are planning to practise all the way

Heard that the trainee in his team didn't want to stay on in his team and left for an international firm. Complained that it was tough and he had to run a lot of the files on his own as a trainee.

The point is that if you are good enough you go white shoe. Baker senior associates are by and large, if lateral hires from local firms, those who cannot be JP / do not want to be exposed to partner expectations that soon but ironically worm their way to getting paid more than local JP.
