Do Patent Lawyers earn substantially more than other Practicing Lawyers?

Patent lawyers specialize in the field of intellectual property. They may work with inventors during the patent process to ensure the inventors' works are legally protected. They protect their client's right to the invention, so in a way, they earn heavily as their client deal in the invention which fetch more money if it gets the patent. In order to protect their rights, they also earn big money. Moreover, practicing lawyers can't be compared to them as in their own field they earn good money too. One can't compare the two. Take the example of Siddharth Luthra who is a lawyer and deals with cases of crime, he is India's biggest criminal lawyer. He takes above 5 lakhs and even more per hearing. So, you can't compare the two fields as both have their own benefits and returns. In both the fields, lawyer earns heavily provided one is good with his lawyering skills whatever case he's dealing with either patent protection case or any other civil or criminal case.
