For both b4 and bigger mid-sized firms.
These are generally the bands. Recent practice is for many firms to distinguish based on practice groups (i.e. more profitable or revenue generating practices pay at the higher end) hence there's a range and not a uniform figure for each PQE year. Also it folds in frontloaded bonus, so the remaining bonus is usually only a paltry amount like 0.5-1 of monthly pay.

B4
NQ: $7.5K - $7.9K
1PQE: $8.5K - $9.2K
2PQE: $9K - $10.5K
3PQE: $10.5K - $11.8K
4PQE and above: $12K & above

Mid-tier
NQ: $6.8K - $7.6K
1PQE: $7.5K - $8.2K
2PQE: $8K - $9.2K
3PQE: $10K - $11.5K
4PQE: $11K & above

If this is true, then isn't it very plausible for a Drew AD to be at around $20k? Even the more junior ones, say a FD or a couple of years after making AD.

Dunno why people were rubbishing the 20k figure a few pages back.

Drew AD is a junior JP so would not be getting 20k..

My name is MacDuff and I am a countryist. I hadn’t realised it before but then Singaporean-owned dogs reared in Singapore for whom privilege is a birthright wouldn’t.

Anyone saw the new Hong Kong Legal Cheek website

://hk.legalcheek.com/

You think they should create one for Singapore too? Would be quite useful to have 1 for Singapore lawyers.

Default Master template for fighting the war for talent on salary.sg

* When a local law firm partner is competing for legal talent against other local firms, here are some ways to go about it *

(1) I. Claim you are paying market leading salaries to juniors, to cement your image as a top-paying firm in the industry, AND / OR
put out hearsay claims / quotes re. the high salaries of your other mid-level and above lawyers;
II. Depress whatever a competitor local firm claim they are paying to mid-level and above lawyers, by quoting the lower bounds of their black-box range.

(2) Talk up the prestige and scale of your work / clients. Additionally, deploy some identifiable slogans for your firm drive home this fact.


* When a local law firm partner is competing for legal talent against international firms *

(3) Deploy identity politics. Convince locals that your firm offers higher chances of partnership because hey! You, the partner, are a local too just like them.

the truly devout fighters will shed all earthly possessions by joining AGC for 4k/mth with no prospects of FCH or scholarship

you are also essentially asking "why do cambridge grads aim for better firms on average compared to local grads"
