Does anyone know what is reasonable salary for an entry level in-house patent attorney with Ph.D. right now? Or where can I find relevan information?

Thank you in advance,

Depends on the company and the region.  Probably in the range of $75-100k.

I'd hope it might be a little north of the range Wiener mentioned, but don't have any data on it.  It would be kind of hard to say because so few lawyers enter the profession as in-house counsel.  Much more often companies hiring for in-house want 5+ years experience.

Definitely agree also that a starting salary in Des Moines or Decatur IL will be much lower than NYC or LA or even Atlanta, for that matter.
