Do AI skills change litigation legal assistant pay?

For Legal roles in general, as of October 27, 2026. This is the function’s figure, not one for litigation legal assistant alone: one title rarely has enough listings on both sides.

Among Legal listings, those that ask for an AI skill advertise a median $205,000, against $138,000 for those that never mention AI (+48.6%). That raw gap is not matched on level or industry.

Advertised pay only: the midpoint of the range an employer posted, on live U.S. postings read from the full text. “Asks for an AI skill” means the posting names a specific AI skill; “no AI” means it never mentions AI. A difference in what is advertised is not a promise of what you would be paid, and it does not show that learning a skill causes a raise.
