Notes:

Source: Frasia Wright Associates in depth and ongoing analysis of confidential discussions with lawyers throughout the UK and overseas.
Figures are based on average salaries across a range of firms and organisations. (For all of the salary levels, benefits are not included.)
Benefits and other payment variables can make it harder to gauge the salary level or market value because compensation is no longer always a fixed number and so no salary guide can tell you exactly how these extras add up for specific positions.
Salary levels for senior associates and partners vary depending on many factors such as firm size, length of service, level of responsibility and practice area and so will need to be considered on a case by case basis.
