What area of practice? Is this for a law firm or in-house corporate paralegal?

Biglaw or smallaw? This matters on what they can bill you out as? Have you checked Glassdoor and indeed?

I have about 3.5 years experience no certificate no other languages and work for big law litigation in Chicago. $65K plus OT and bonus

I have two and half years of experience. I am bilingual (not in Spanish so it doesn’t actually help anything). I make 70K as a paralegal in big law NYC and anything beyond 37.5 is overtime pay.

60-65k but that’s in house insurance defense.

Corporate suggested me for a DON position in TX. I currently live in SD and work as ADON. Corporate said minimum salary would be 115k. Then flew me there for 2 weeks to see the building (nursing home). They all loved me, as does corporate. But my offer today was 90k. When I said I was told 115k they countered with 100k. I said I’d think about it over the weekend but really am looking for at least 110k. Have to sell my house and move and rebuy w higher interest rates. What do you think??

Struggling accepting I may have to cut my salary 10k-20k in order to do that…
