Compensation and Benefits Survey

ALA's Compensation and Benefits Survey is the most comprehensive law firm salary survey and benefits report that ALA puts together annually. ALA's Salary Calculator is an added benefit for those who purchased our 2025 reports. The salary calculator allows you to receive personalized results by position based on specific inputs such as location, experience and firm size — saving time and hassle.

You'll gain insight into data from 200+ law firms answering for nearly 1,000 locations nationwide with more than 400 pages of information to serve as an essential tool for determining compensation and benefits for your firm's staff. Data is further broken down by region, state and metro area, making it even easier to compare your firm against competitors. 

Prepare your budget for the year ahead. The survey has the information you need to get started:

  • Differences in compensation between geographic regions and major metropolitan areas
  • Types of benefits becoming increasingly popular
  • Compensation for associate attorneys as they progress in experience
  • Standard billable hours goals for associates and paralegals
  • And much more!

Does your firm have 100+ attorneys? 

The Large Firm Key Staff Survey bundle is just what you need! The bundle includes our annual Compensation and Benefits Survey plus the Large Firm Key Staff Survey that contains data specifically for director-level and C-suite positions in large law firms.

Note: The surveys are available in PDF only. We do not have an excel format available due to antitrust concerns.
