lawman | It's definitely possible, but I'm not sure what you meant by "easily". Nothing is easy. |

Harris gybe Is it true that even if you're a one-man(without being an SC) practice you can easily make 300k annually? |

Unregistered | Hi, what is the pay like for a first year partner(salaried) in the big local firms, or if possible, mid and mid/big firms like shooklin and TKQ etc.? |

2982 singlaw:- Thanks for the information. Well, I am giving them the benefit of the doubt as:- 1) I will be switching from litigation to arbitration (not to mention that I am not admitted to the Singapore Bar as yet); and 2) I have yet to prove my capabilities in a different jurisdiction. Hopefully things will be different once I have settled down with the job. Am really look forward to the challenge! Thanks again. |

2981 singa09: if you are getting only $4k, it means you have been dropped 2 years PQE as $4k is really NQ salary. 2PQE should be somewhere in the $6k range, at least in cartel. i'm at 4PQE and getting $8.5k base. some of my 4PQE peers at international firms are getting $12-$15k. |

2521 4.5K is only for the larger local firms (though its since been upped to 4.8K - 5K at 1 or 2 firms). At foreign firms based here, its anything from 5.5K to I dont know, maybe 7 - 8K? On the other hand, lawyers in small firms are getting 3K plus even after 2 - 3 years. If you want big money, do something else. If you want stability of income, lawyering isnt bad, I suppose. |
