I make 400k/350k in a bad year, but I don’t “practice” or “work” really, because I’m inhouse. To get me to work at a firm I would need to make at least 750k and that’s for an 1800 hour target. For a 2000+ hour target I’d need to make at least 900k, and even then it would only be worthwhile if there was a clear path of bizdev that would lead to a $5+M annual book within two years and total comp well into seven figure range. I can’t emphasize enough how preposterously little work I have been asked to do in my 10+ years inhouse.

I think xoxo tends to vastly overestimate how much non-big law attorneys are making.
I get recruiter emails now, and due to the NYC laws, they have to disclose compensation - and it's basiclly $200-260 base for standard in-house jobs at banks, PE funds, real estate shops, etc - and they all require like 4 days in the office 9-6 hours.
I'm very happy to make that amount in flyover in house doing like 20 hours of real work a week. Seems like a lot of people are making a similar amount doing big law type work with near big law type hours with a NYC cost of living.

I run my own ShitLaw practice and I cleared over $200k last year.
I don't mean gross revenue, I mean just what I paid myself after all other expenses.
Why are you slaving away for someone else if they're paying SHIT, PURE DRIPPING SHIT wages?

Sadly, this is accurate as fuck.
If you can get pussy, then you can convince someone to PAY YOU to solve their legal issue.
It's not that hard. The barrier to entry is ridiculously low. All you need is a laptop and cheap website from GoDaddy and you are a full-fledge law firm.

Government workers, in-house drones, small firm of counsels make 200-259k or even less.
I make 375-400k right now as a litigation boutique of counsel but hopefully getting breakfast in January.

This thread makes me extremely depressed and makes me feel like I’ve wasted my life.
Then I consider that I’ve grown up poorer than my parents (who were layabouts who did nothing except get divorced and have children that all wound up dead before 35)
Then I start to seethe with bitter rage.
God, I am such a failure. I have failed at everything I have ever tried.
