How Much Do In-House Lawyers Make?

As law firm associate salaries continue to climb, what’s happening on the in-house side? Are corporate counsel seeing any increases in their pay? 

Help us find out by taking our 2022 In-House Compensation Survey.

Each year, Above the Law surveys in-house lawyers about their compensation to help current corporate counsel benchmark their pay and provide insights to other attorneys and law students considering an in-house career. In December, we released the results of our 2021 survey.

Now it’s time to update our data again. While this year’s survey remains short and sweet, we have incorporated a few new elements to enable us to delve more deeply into the results and provide even more benchmarking information. How, for example, might in-house pay differ by industry or region, by practice area or department size?

So, if you’re an in-house lawyer, please take our brief, always anonymous, survey. And feel free to share the survey with other in-house counsel. The more responses we receive, the more information we’ll have to share.
