Lawyer Salary

Dating within same teams actually make you look forward to go to work.
Otherwise unless you get an adrenaline rush from taking down your opponents in court everyday, I’m not sure how else one finds the motivation to work 16h work days

So now that im going to be a 1 pqe, i wanted to know what i should be expecting from either my boss as a raise or from another firm i switch too!

ive gotten an offer for 4.2k but it seems REALLY low for a 1pqe for any firm? are bosses really lowballing because of this pandemic or is this still within acceptable market rate?

thanks everyone for your help! (and if you guys know any openings with decent pay....)

4.2k? yikessss are chinatown firms paying lower than that now

That’s why the motivation to do law cannot be because of money.
If it’s money, you should do business graduate top of cohort and go to a hedge fund to work.

Law is a profession where you must do it either to uphold justice, in that case you go be a prosecutor, or you do it because you want to make a difference in the life of others, pro bono, access to justice etc.

If you want a lot of money, then you need to relook at why you are doing law.
If everyone wants the money, then no one in law would be academics, doing pro bono work, community law etc.

It’s not about the money. If a Oxford, cambridge or harvard grad thinks only about money then so many of them won’t be in academic trying to teach the next generation of lawyers.

How to find a doctor? Go to hospital and say sick? Then hopefully fate and chance allow me to meet a young and pretty doctor?

Firms with miserable pantries?
