TOO MUCH
It varies greatly depending on the firm and type of practice. I think the average salary for a law school graduate in the U.S. entering private practice is around $70,000/year, however that includes lawyers going to work for themselves and smaller shops that may not pay as much as a larger firm. The larger firms have been engaging in salary wars for years. The last bump in NYC has first year lawyers at big firms starting at $160,000.
