Lawyers salary in Mississippi
You might see a bigger number on a job board. Job boards show what employers post, not what workers actually earn. BLS surveyed real employment for lawyers in Mississippi and found a median of $91,690 a year, and that survey figure is the one I trust here.
MEDIAN ANNUAL SALARY
$44 per hour at the median · That is $67,980 (42.6 percent) below the national median of $159,670 for this occupation.

The middle half of workers earned from $63,650 to $130,170 a year. Hourly pay matters if your hours vary. An annual figure can look strong while the hourly rate tells a different story, especially in jobs with seasonal hours or overtime. Check both before you compare two offers.

ESTIMATED TAKE-HOME PAY
Caveat: the Mississippi DOR page also contains a stale 4.4 percent line beside the explicit 2026 row at 4 percent, so re-check against the final 2026 Form 80-105 instructions.
