It really depends where you go to school, how well you did, where you are located, and what kind of job you get. If you do well, there are certainly possibilities for 6-figure+ salaries, but most who specialize in CrimLaw don't make that, at least not for a while. Going into crimlaw, you're most likely either working for the government as a prosecutor or public defender, or privately for criminals whose income tends to be lower, and so the pay is not great--40K would not be altogether uncommon.

But if you do really well at a good program, you may be able to land a crimlaw job with better pay.
