Lawyers’ salary is restricted by market supply and demand. In fact, it is the same for any profession.
When the supply of professional positions exceeds the demand, the salary will inevitably be lower; when the professional positions are scarce, the salary will have room for negotiation. Once you understand the basic principles of supply and demand in economics, you can understand what is the most appropriate salary for a lawyer.
At present, the salary, that is, the monthly salary of lawyers in most cities across the country is not very high compared with other types of professions, because lawyers are not a very scarce profession and can get a monthly salary of 6,000 yuan. , I personally think it’s pretty good. I don’t know how much value a lawyer with a monthly salary of 6,000 can create for a law firm. If you can’t practice independently, then just take a job with a monthly salary of 6,000. .This is the best choice for your career income. In addition to the first-line red circle, which law firms can give you a monthly salary of 6,000?
The nature of the lawyer profession determines that if you want to develop yourself well, you must practice independently. Don't ask why? This is the fundamental law of the legal profession.
Being able to practice independently requires certain conditions, such as: your ability to develop case sources, your ability to independently handle cases, your ability to coordinate the parties, etc. Otherwise, don’t worry, the salary payment will not be good?
The reason why salaried lawyers are limited in business expansion is that all the business you do is arranged by others, and the income you receive is also arranged by others, so you cannot make decisions based on your own needs. choose.
I am just afraid that if you are in a paid circle, you will slowly solidify and never be independent. Once the paid environment disappears, it will be a fatal blow to you. To avoid the crises you see, independence is the best response.
The legal services industry is a broad career track. You cannot be proficient in everything. If you want to be proficient in everything, the end result will be that you are not proficient in everything, so you must learn to find what suits you best. It’s a business track. If you work hard on this track, you will become a scarce resource.
Independently complete business on your own track, such as customer service, agency, getting customers to repurchase, word-of-mouth publicity, etc. At this time, you are building your own small team. If you give to others, your business will prosper and your future will be bright.
In short, finding your favorite business track, doing the most considerate business, building your own team, charging the highest fees, and completing the closed-loop business in your own professional field is the career direction of a lawyer.
In addition, all methods and angles of looking at problems are limited by human cognition and environment. I made an answer within the scope of my own cognition based on your question, and there must be cognitive bias. .
I have been practicing independently since I was an intern. The law firm has no salary, no case handling, and no guidance from the master. My income is also paid to the firm as management fees. Because, when I started to choose a career as a lawyer, I decided that I would work for myself, so I felt that the future was bright.
I believe that lawyers should identify their own professional fields and work hard for them. I also believe that lawyers should be cross-border comprehensive talents. There is no right or wrong in this world. The world is not black and white. But gray. I am both a lawyer who specializes in commercial matters and an invulnerable lawyer who can do anything.
