People Ask How Much Money Lawyers Make in Each US State.
Late 2019 a report from the BLS said national average annual wage of an lawyer is $144,230, which is not faraway from being 3 times the average each year. The reason of this blog came to my attention from a suing settlement legal case, I was involved in a car accident and of course hospitalized with an injury. I got paid a settlement of $40,000 dollars after the legal lawsuit. I did not know that people could file a personal injury lawsuit for any type of injury, and my lawyer never told me about my rights, instead she just got paid from my settlement money the faster as she could.

Lawyers barely can eat and if they don't work, they become homeless in the US. I seen lawyers begging for a piece of bread to survive. Loo Mr. Donald Trump's lawyers, they fail over and over and Trump can't pay them because he is broke.
Someday I find a good lawyers with lots of money to settle my life.
I think that if the lawyers become famous like Bill and Hilary Clinton, yes they become rich. It is a very wealthy career to study laws.
Lawyers feed their families with little pieces of bread because the career is overflowed, once they get hire, then they must prove themselves and it takes time.
It is hard to find jobs to work as a commercial layer, the career market is overloaded so far, way too many lawyers competing for a piece of the pie. No money to be made from that career.
My ex boyfriend was a lawyer and he always was asking to borrow my money, that's why we are over, because he never pay back.
Poor guy! So sorry.
There are many different careers to choose from, legal careers are already overwhelming already. I was considering to study for becoming a register nurse and something happen, then i chosen different.
I respect the law career and i think their job is very professional, that's the reason why the US lawyers should make a lot of money.
Their money potential is unlimited, however. they go to work for a corporation for a fix salary of 50k to 80k because they just don't want to look for their customers out there with legal advertisement.
I think so, too. People work and work smart and they become rich because they save their money to invest later. Lawyers have no limits on the money they can make working smart.
I think if a lawyer gets a big case and he or she win their case in court, then they might be compensated big money. Remember the Robert George Kardashian American attorney and businessman and his OJ Simpson murder legal case? Well, the Kardasian's father Robert George Kardashian won the case and collected all the money from OJ Simpson.
Some lawyers don't make enough to pay their bills and pay for child support.
Lawyers charge their customers for representing them at the court room only if there is money, they charge for breathing.
If they do their job well done, then after they get a big clientele looking for legal services, their salary could be 150,000 or more.
I don't know and I think it is a lot of money.
I know some lawyers that make nothing and they are looking a new career because their law business doors are closed.
You're right!
I don't really know, but, I'm sure they get a whole punch of money per year. I would love to study law and become an attorney.
Good, I'm sure you will do better than many pill-heads out there.
I heard they can make a lot, so much that those professionals can retire before their 40's.
My first boyfriend was a lawyer and he was having hard-time finding a good pay salary, poor guy.. that's why I move one with another guy.
That's not true, chances are that they will go unemployed because of the career competition is very strong on the legal jobs market. My sister is a lawyer with high degree and still she struggles.
I can make more money than the average lawyers, just by me working three days a week.
My cousin is a rich lawyer and she is never happy, instead she wants more money for her job done as a lawyer and legal issues.
You heard wrong my friend, they do have a lot of duties and the money is not enough, never.
I heard that too!! My goodness, I wish I was a lawyer.
I also heard that other professional careers pay better than law career. Software Programming, Electronics Engineering is one of those.
Young students must get money borrowed to study at the best universities, by the time they find a job, they already have a huge debt to pay.
