Legal Salary Survey & Market Report | 2026/27

Whether you’re actively recruiting, reviewing salaries across your team or planning your people strategy for the year ahead, our 2026/27 Legal Salary Survey is designed to give you a clearer view of the market.

Legal hiring continues to evolve, and salary is only part of the picture. Flexibility, progression, benefits, workplace culture and long-term development are increasingly influencing where legal professionals choose to work and, importantly, whether they stay.

To help you benchmark your offering, we’ve brought together the latest salary data and market insight from across private practice, looking at what firms are paying, where demand is strongest and what matters most to legal talent.

Inside, you’ll discover:

• Region-by-region salary benchmarks across key legal roles
• Practice area hiring trends and areas of strongest demand
• What’s motivating legal professionals to move, or stay
• The benefits and flexible working arrangements shaping decisions
• The growing importance of progression, development and retention

Whether you’re making an immediate hire or taking a broader look at your attraction and retention strategy, the report can help you understand how your firm compares and where expectations are changing.

From paralegals through to senior associates and partners, we’ve looked beyond salaries alone to consider the wider employment proposition, including flexibility, benefits, progression and the factors influencing career decisions across the legal profession.

If you’re benchmarking salaries, reviewing your benefits or simply want to understand what today’s legal professionals expect from their employer, this report will help you make more informed decisions.
