Participate in NALP's 2012 Public Interest Salary Survey

What is NALP’s Public Interest Salary Survey?

Every two years, NALP conducts the Public Interest Salary Survey to gather important data on attorney salaries, benefits packages, and loan repayment assistance programs.  Public interest law offices rely on this survey data to set salary scales, negotiate union contracts, implement loan repayment programs, and for other purposes.

Who should participate?

  • Civil Legal Services Organizations
  • Public Defenders’ Offices
  • District Attorney/Local Prosecutors’ Offices
  • All other nonprofit, public interest law offices (e.g. those organizations that promote civil liberties, human rights, advocate for the homeless, etc.)

How to participate

A survey instrument was mailed to public interest organizations throughout the country last week. You can also complete the survey online — an electronic version is available here: https://survey.vovici.com/se.ashx?s=17CFEB607A3193C6. However, only use one method to complete the survey.

A PDF is available for hard-copy printing here: http://tinyurl.com/89bjqqh.   All survey participants will receive a free electronic copy of the report when it is released later in the year. 

Deadline

The survey response deadline is February 24, 2012, but we encourage you to complete it as soon as possible.
