Specialty type
Lawyers are divided into three majors: civil lawyers, criminal lawyers and administrative lawyers. Civil and commercial lawyers mainly deal with contract disputes, tort disputes, marriage and family disputes, inheritance disputes and so on.
Criminal lawyers mainly handle legal services for criminal cases: administrative lawyers mainly handle cases of administrative punishment, administrative measures and administrative organs and their staff who are dissatisfied with their functions and powers.
Lawyers can be divided into full-time lawyers and lawyers according to the nature of their work, civil lawyers, criminal lawyers and administrative lawyers according to their business scope, social lawyers, corporate lawyers and public lawyers according to their clients and work status.
Lawyer's business is mainly divided into litigation business and non-litigation business.
Litigation refers to the form in which both parties to a dispute solve their disputes by suing each other in a court with jurisdiction.
Non-litigation business corresponds to litigation business, which means that lawyers, within the scope of their functions and powers, accept the entrustment of citizens, legal persons or other organizations to handle legal affairs unrelated to the courts and arbitration committees for the parties.

salary
The first floor: trainee lawyers
Annual income: 0- 12w
According to the law, lawyers must go through a one-year internship period before they can formally practice. Intern lawyers can't handle cases independently, but can only do some auxiliary work under the guidance of teaching lawyers.
Coupled with the inexperience of trainee lawyers, few clients will entrust them, so most trainee lawyers can only survive on the meager allowance issued by the teaching lawyers.
According to lawyers, in third-and fourth-tier cities, most trainee lawyers earn only 2k to 3k per month. Intern lawyers in second-tier cities can earn 3k to 5k every month.
In first-tier cities, it is common to spend more than 5k per month, but it will not be too high, generally not more than 7. The red circle in a few first-tier cities can offer interns a monthly salary of 1w+, but the corresponding entry requirements and work intensity will be high.
salary
The second level: novice lawyers/paid lawyers who have been practicing for 1-3 years.
Annual income: 5w-30w
There are two kinds of lawyers: commission lawyers and paid lawyers. Commission lawyers are similar to self-employed. They take cases and make their own money. The advantage is that a case can make a lot of money, and the disadvantage is instability.
A paid lawyer is similar to punching in a company and working for other barristers. Some new lawyers who have just started practicing will choose to be paid lawyers in the first three years for fear that they will not receive cases.
With the increase of working years, the income of lawyers will gradually increase. Most lawyers can earn 20-30w a year in the third year of practice.
Of course, the lawyer's income depends on the individual. There are also many lawyers who still can't earn more than 10 thousand in the third year of practice.
salary
The third level: a senior lawyer who has been practicing for 3- 10 years.
Annual income: 15w- 100w
Why does a lawyer who has been practicing for 3- 10 years have a minimum annual income of 15w? Because lawyers who earn less than this figure basically choose to change careers. Then why is the upper income limit 100w?
This is because lawyers whose annual income exceeds 100w are generally promoted to partners by law firms. (Of course, some lawyers are promoted to partners with an annual salary of several hundred thousand).
Level 4: Partners
Annual income:: 50w- eight figures
Ordinary lawyers have only natural rights in law. When you become a partner, it means that you hold a part of the income of the law firm.
Generally speaking, law firms require partners to meet certain income-generating requirements (generally, the annual income is more than one million). For the partners in the red circle, the annual income is a common phenomenon.
salary
The fifth floor: Director of the Red Circle Research Institute.
Annual income: eight figures-nine figures
Red Circle Law Firm is simply the top law firm in China. The word "Red Circle Firm" comes from an article published by Asian Law Journal many years ago, which named eight law firms, including King Wood, Hejun and Jing Tian Gongcheng, as "Red Circle Firms". Of course, since the article has been published for some time, the actual ranking of the top domestic law firms has already changed.
The director of the Red Circle Institute is the person in charge of the main offices and branches of the Red Circle. Since he is in charge, his annual income will definitely not be less than 10 million. Of course, lawyers, after all, work for their bosses, and it is rare to see those who earn more than 100 million yuan a year.
