It varies pretty wildly depending upon area of law and city. I can speak to Ohio - Dayton is about 20 to 30 percent lower than Cincinnati or Columbus. Personal injury can start as low as 15 and go up to 30 per hour, while immigration is up to 35. Probate is most desired but averages around 28. Factor in variations in benefits and that adds another layer of "pay"
