We want LI to be one of the friendliest places on the internet, where lawyers and law students help each other with their career related queries and occasionally discuss other stuff that might affect their lives too. In other words:
1. Be kind, respectful and helpful to each other.
2. Be bona fide, truthful, genuine and curious.
3. Assume the best intention of others.
Therefore, in using the site, you must agree to do your best to uphold these community guidelines.
Note that what you find here is written and moderated by anonymous people on the internet.
Therefore everything you read here is very likely unverified, rumour, speculation and/or downright false.
In continuing to read anything here, you must therefore agree not to take anything you read here as factual and that you will exercise due caution, diligence and common sense before acting on any information you may come across here.
You also agree to report any inaccurate or malicious comments with the buttons. Moderators take action within 24 hours, as required and appropriate under law.

Do you solemnly agree to all of the above?
Please stick to discussing Tier 2 law firms such as Indus, Keystone Partners, Kachwaha and Partners, Kanga & Co., Bharucha & Partners, Link Legal etc. Discussion about Top 7 firms have been done in a previous conversation on LI.
Mention designation and office when you quote your salary. Any additional benefits?

All bonuses were paid out as per policy.
Associates (0 to 5 years) - 30k to 1 lac (Litigation) & 40k to 1.2 lac (Corporate)
Senior Associates (5 to 7 years) - 1 lac to 2 lac
Principal Associates (7 to 9 years) - 2 lac to 3 lac
Counsels (9 years plus) - 3 lac to 4 lac
This is the real pay structure at DMD, with marginal difference between the Bombay & Delhi offices. The Delhi office pays slightly on the higher side but that is also because they retain their associates as well.
50k for Delhi
What's the pay range of Pioneer and Stratage
I have no clue of what tier 2/3 SA1's would make but I suspect discount 20-50% based on current market trend.
Correct me if I'm wrong???
Where do I need to apply at?
No guarantee on regularity of payment. Maybe once in 2-3 months. Last retainer paid for Associates was for February and for Partners was December 2020.
However, no one has given any insight into what this figure might be for non-tier 1's.
Kindly help.
