I am a personal injury pre litigation case manager. 11 years experience. The case load I manage is between 120-140 cases. My current yearly salary is 75k, but I have not had a raise in 3 years. I have a review coming up, and I'm bringing this up, but what is a fair pay increase?

Are there bonuses built into your comp package right now? Also, your location matters; if you’re in a high cost of living area like Southern California for example, I wouldn’t take less than 90k as your salary.

I'm a PI lawyer and my salary is lower than yours to manage the same amount of files in litigation.

Only every 15 seconds.

Do you get bonuses every year? If not I woudl definitely suggest a significant raise considering you haven't had one in three years.

Plus my current financial situation is stressful and I accepted the offer on certain conditions but now hr or the firm but saying we can't committ you. Any suggestions.

I have a question, I got a contract role through a recruiter. Initially the recruiter offered the hourly pay rate which was the minimum in my range. Now I got an offer from the company. Now without me asking her she increased the hourly wage to the maximum range I asked. Which makes me doubt if the company increased it or she knew the rate all along but gave me the lower rate ?

When negotiating salary and being asked if you currently get a bonus, would you "lie" if it helps you to get paid more?
