Firm remuneration system..

Asawari Malhotra (Querist) 07 August 2013 This query is : Resolved
When you join a law firm after getting your LLB/LLM degree.. how are you paid by the firm? on monthly basis ? but you are their associate and not their employee.. or are you remunerated on the basis of the number and kind of clients you handle? or is it that you are given the responsibility of a few clients and you negotiate directly with them?

Hi Asawari,
Mostly the law firms pay on monthly basis. Even if you work under an independent lawyer, mostly you will be paid monthly only. But, some lawyers pay on the basis of clients you handle, appearance made, or other works done, it depends.

system differs in each law firm.
