There was an unchanged number of active legal licenses in Franklin County in September compared to the previous month, according to the NYS Attorney Registrations.

There were 14 active legal licenses in Franklin County in September.

Data refers to all lawyers who were actively practicing during this time period.

Although New York State is home to nearly 190,000 laywers, the most of any US state, most of the lawyers live are around NYC. Only 3% of all the legal force is working in 85% of the state's territory.

As of 2019, nearly 75% of rural New York State attorneys were 45-years-old or older, which was one of the most concerning findings from a report on rural law practice. The report predicted that most rural lawyers in New York State will retire within 30 years and not be replaced by younger attorneys.

“There are not nearly enough lawyers to address the needs of smaller communities… There is, simply put, a crisis in terms of getting older lawyers to stay in their jobs longer than they are", said the president of the New York State Bar Association.

The average salary for an attorney working in New York State as of December 25, 2023, is $112,052 per year.
