Compensation Survey



The Annual Compensation Survey for Paralegals/Legal Assistants and Managers ("the Survey") tracks compensation, billing rates and billable hours for paralegals and paralegal managers.

The Survey contains detailed reports on:
  • Salary, bonus and overtime amounts
  • National, regional and metropolitan area trends
  • Practice area and industry breakdowns
  • Details by size of organization and years of experience
