Unchanged number of active legal licenses in Peoria in May 2026

Published 06/06/26

There was no change in the number of lawyers with active legal licenses in Peoria in May compared to the previous month, according to the ARDC of the Supreme Court of Illinois.

Overall, the city had a total of 284 lawyers with active licenses in May.

Illinois is home to the sixth-largest lawyer population in the U.S., with nearly 62,000 attorneys, according to the ABA's 2025 National Lawyer Population Survey.

As of June 2026, average lawyer salaries in Illinois ranged from $101,987 for an entry-level attorney handling routine legal work to $258,374 for highly experienced attorneys managing complex cases with significant autonomy. Mid-level attorneys, such as those in Attorney III roles—who handle highly complex legal work with moderate supervision—earned on average $191,228 in Illinois, compared to $187,607 nationwide.

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