Omnidragon, I was basing my arguement on the data in that survey, I assume those figures were derived from a representative sample size of the industry in Australia, and are reasonably correct? Both low and high ends of the range tend to follow this trend as well.
I realize that this is not an independent academic study, so if you feel these figures are incorrect, please let me know.
I was talking about the career as a whole; I've noticed a lot of people on this forum saying that they feel lawyers don't get paid that well. I think this 10 year salary progression is very good compared to majority of the Australian workforce. Growth potential in Australia is not that high, we're not America
