Real Insights. Market-Relevant Data. Your Voice Shapes the Result.
At Tyler Wren, we’re building our most focused salary guide survey yet, centred exclusively on Australia and New Zealand’s private practice legal market. Whether you’re a junior solicitor, senior associate, legal executive, or part of a support team, we want to hear from you.
Each year, our Legal Salary & Benefits Guide is used by law firms and legal professionals across the country to benchmark pay, benefits, and hiring trends. To ensure the data reflects the realities of the profession, we need your insight.
Why Your Voice Matters
We don’t just publish a guide, we listen to the market. Our salary guide survey takes under five minutes and gives legal professionals the opportunity to influence the most referenced salary data in the sector.
By participating, you help define:
- Salary bands by region, title, and PQE
- Evolving benefits expectations
- Patterns in staff movement and retention
- Sentiment around job satisfaction and retention
What’s in the 2025 Legal Salary & Benefits Guide?
Launching in August 2025, the guide will deliver an ANZ-wide snapshot of:
- Salary ranges by role, PQE, and location
- Year-on-year changes in pay and market confidence
- Benefits, trends, and flexible work practices
- Retention and attraction trends in private practice
- Commentary from legal recruitment specialists who are speaking to firms and candidates daily
The content is based on a mix of survey data, live market conversations, and placement insights.
Survey Launch Date
The Legal Salary Guide Survey will open in mid-June 2025.
It only takes five minutes. Your anonymous feedback directly influences the accuracy and relevance of the final guide.
How We Build the Guide
To produce our annual guide, we draw from three essential sources:
- Market Conversations
Our legal recruiters speak to lawyers, legal executives, and support professionals every day. These conversations provide up-to-the-minute insights into expectations, hiring pressure, and firm offerings.
2. The Salary Guide Survey
This five-minute survey captures direct feedback from professionals across our network. It’s one of the most valuable tools we use to build a guide that reflects the real state of the employment market.
3. Internal Data & Trends
We analyse placement records, salary patterns, and past survey results to identify consistencies, shifts, and outliers.
Stay Updated
We’ll share survey links, commentary, and updates through our LinkedIn page. Follow us to stay up-to-date on the launch and the August guide release.
