What is the typical income of a lawyer who has been practicing in a small city for about 6 or 7 years? The living environment of lawyers is basically the same. As for income, Beijing is definitely higher. One: Current status of survival. The businesses that lawyers take over include litigation, arbitration, and non-litigation (such as corporate legal counsel, legal consultation on corporate restructuring and listing, etc.). Among them, "non-litigation is more secure", mainly because many of them are charged by the hour and the risk is relatively small. Litigation cases are divided into "general agency" and "risk agency". The former is relatively low-cost, while the latter is currently commonly used by all parties. Lawyers pay different fees depending on whether they win or lose the case, and the risk is greater. Arbitration business, for domestic clients, represents risks, while for some lawyers with foreign clients, it is "time-rate". Senior lawyers earn higher incomes from this type of business. Moreover, there are currently only a few very professional lawyers in Beijing, such as those who specialize in intellectual property, maritime business and other fields. Most lawyers can take whatever they can get. These areas are also different. "The income from finance, real estate, foreign affairs, listing and other businesses is high. Civil cases such as divorce and property analysis are low-income; criminal cases such as theft are even less, and the lowest is only about 500 yuan." In terms of administrative risks, lawyers They may be punished by judicial administrative agencies and bar associations for irregular practice. Lawyers who violate serious regulations may have their practicing qualifications revoked by judicial administrative agencies and lose their jobs. In this "high-cost, high-risk" industry, not everyone has difficulties. Therefore, whether you are choosing a job or making an evaluation, it is much more practical and practical to objectively consider the actual situation than to look at the halo of the industry. Second, income. Basically it can be divided into the following categories. Trainee lawyer: 1,000 yuan/month to 2,000 yuan/month, annual salary 10,000 yuan to 20,000 yuan. Salaried lawyers: (generally more than 5 years of work experience, case source provided by the firm) base salary 3,000-4,000 yuan, maximum 5,000 yuan. Including bonuses, the annual income is 40,000-80,000 yuan. Commission lawyers: Commission lawyers are divided into "pure commission" and "basic salary commission". The income of "pure commission" lawyers is generally divided between 73 and 73 between firms; "basic salary commission" lawyers have a basic salary of 800 yuan to 2,000 yuan per month, and a commission rate of 20-50. The income of commission lawyers is not fixed. Sometimes there are cases, sometimes there are no cases. There are big months and small years. The income contrast is relatively large. Partner lawyers: Their income depends on the operating conditions of the firm. They are a wealthy group of lawyers with an annual salary of hundreds of thousands, even millions.
