 $130,490
The Bureau of Labor Statistics
estimates that lawyers earned an
average salary of $130,490 a year, or
$62.74 per hour, for 2011. This figure
factors in all lawyers, no matter their
experience. First-year associates often
make much less money than other lawyers
in a firm.

job outlook
Lawyers are professionals who
serve their clients' legal needs
in either civil or criminal
proceedings. They offer advice
on legal matters, draw up
official documents, manage
their clients' legal affairs and
represent them in legal
settings, including in court, if
necessary. CNN Money's 2010
annual list of the Best Jobs in
America ranked attorney/lawyer
at No. 55 overall and at No. 15
for high pay, out of 100. But the
job outlook for new graduates is
challenging, as of 2012.

The Bureau of Labor

Statistics projects new job
opportunities for lawyers to
grow by 10 percent between
2010 and 2020. The average
growth rate for all
occupations is expected to
be 14 percent. The bureau
expects there to be fewer
new jobs available than
there are new lawyers
emerging from law school,
resulting in intense
competition for available
jobs.
