Probably decent for Florida but that’s a lot of hours for that salary. Idk if you’re underpaid regionally but I would never stay at a job for that pay and those hours.

Yeah i hear this. Probably because I switched areas of practice in my 6th year. Pretty sure the attys with my yoe but been here longer are all making 200-215k. Think the firm caps associates out at low 200s.

LCOL city? I'm 8 years out, also at 175K, but 1900 billables. But in my market, that's pretty good. Small-ish Midwestern city.

Feels low, but I know it’s very market-dependent. For context I was making 175k as a 2nd year with a 1700 billing requirement for a small sized IP firm, fully remote.

7 years (8 come September) $400k base, $83k bonus, 1800 hours, commercial lit at national firm in FTL. You are extremely underpaid and should look to lateral or garner a competing offer.

Oh well that explains it. Your OG post says mid size commercial lit. My practice is 70% commercial lit, 30% white collar.
