Go to glassdoor.com and look up the type of lawyer and region. It will range based on location and area of law.

Average starting salary is $65,000 -$110,000 depending on where you live, what type of law you practice, and how hard you work. Joining an established law firm often means that you start with clients right away. Lawyers usually bill by the hour, so having cases and work right away usually means income as well.
