What are people's ideas of what the average starting salary is in these markets for a law school graduate who has passed the patent bar and applicable state bar?

I personally have heard in DC it is around $115k/year, but some people say that is low.

I'm with miltonian : I've seen the same range ($100-160k).

Also look to see if the firm is on NALP (www.nalpdirectory.com).  Starting salary info is listed there.

I just noticed your name.  I hope you're taking more than just money into consideration.
