The chart above shows the highest level of income in the areas of tax, intellectual property, securities, and corporate. The lowest level of income exists in the fields of workers’ compensation, personal injury (defense), family law, and administrative. The average income for the various fields ranges from $36,200 to $67,500. This information may be of interest to recent paralegal graduates or working paralegals who are contemplating a change in the area of law, in which they are employed.
Good information and the chart in itself is great to have. There are alot of different areas a paralegal may be able to work. Some of them on the list I hadn't thought about.
