[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Lawyers who start out at a large DC law firm are making at least $165K a year-- more with bonus-- and that salary rises by about $10K a year.[/quote] Plus starting bonuses of $125K-300K. [/quote] But are there that many more lawyers in the last 15 years; DC has always had white shore firms so where money to buy huge swaths inside beltway. [/quote] Big law firm salaries have had some dips but for the most part have gone up at a pretty steep rate over the past 15 years-- probably from around $95K to $165K base, not including bonuses. That, combined with historically low interest rates, are putting $1M homes within reach for more lawyers at least. Can't speak to the other industries, although there was a Washington Post article a few weeks ago about the crazy salaries that many government relations types are getting paid now. [/quote]
