26 Jul, 2024

If you’re considering a legal career in Australia or are just curious about how much lawyers earn, you’re in the right place. In 2024, the legal profession continues to offer competitive salaries, reflecting both the importance and complexity of the work lawyers do. Here’s a closer look at the average salaries for lawyers across various levels and specializations in Australia.

Average Salaries Across Different Experience Levels

1. Junior Lawyers (0-2 Years Experience) Newly admitted solicitors and junior lawyers generally start their careers with a salary range of AUD 65,000 to AUD 85,000 per year. This range can vary depending on location, with salaries typically higher in major cities like Sydney and Melbourne compared to regional areas.

2. Mid-Level Lawyers (3-7 Years Experience) With a few years of experience, lawyers can expect their salaries to increase significantly. Mid-level lawyers in Australia usually earn between AUD 85,000 and AUD 130,000 annually. Specialization and the size of the firm or organization can impact this range, with those in niche or high-demand fields often commanding higher salaries.

3. Senior Lawyers (8-15 Years Experience) Senior lawyers who have built substantial expertise and experience in their field can earn between AUD 130,000 and AUD 200,000 per year. Those who take on managerial roles or lead significant legal teams often see salaries at the higher end of this spectrum.
