About Company:
Who We Are:
We are a probate and elder law firm that is on track for aggressive
growth and we need a motivated, experienced attorney to join our
team and work directly with the owner and attorneys to support the
team and help clients. Since we're in the middle of a growth spurt,
we really need an attorney who can hit the ground running.
We are a tech-forward firm, so you should be comfortable with
learning new software, playing with the latest apps, and be able to
solve basic tech problems yourself. If you're scared or simply not
a fan of new tech, this position is probably not the best for
you.

empowering clients to make informed choices, and for helping our
clients navigate the estate planning process and court system with
as little stress as possible by supporting the whole person and
