Family Law Associate Attorney, West Palm Beach FL

Job Description

Job Description

Family Law Attorney Position.

Are you looking to finally put your law degree to use towards something you’d actually enjoy doing?

A position that allows you to make a difference in the lives of your clients?

A career a law firm that actually takes advantage of technology so that you can work remotely when possible, and around the schedule of your children and family?

If this describes you, we’d love you to consider joining the Law Firm for our open attorney position. We are a divorce and family law firm that focuses mostly on representing women who are married to controlling, manipulative, or narcissistic husbands.

We strive to focus our firm on these cases because we believe that our female clients in these relationships will actually benefit from their marriage being dissolved. If you want to get a better feel for the philosophy of how we approach helping our clients feel free to download a few of our free books.

If you are not compassionate, lack a sense of humor, are scared away by divorce, are resistant to technology, and want to work in an office every day in a position where facetime is required than we’d love to meet you one day but will not be interested in working with you.

But if you know you can be passionate about helping the clients we serve, are in good standing with the Florida Bar, and have at least 2 years of family law experience please fill out the form below with your name and contact information and check your email for further instructions on how to apply to join our team.

We will only consider applicants currently eligible to practice law in Florida and prefer candidates with at least two years of Florida family law experience.

As far as a few more details about the position:

• This is a full time position, which means for us in the range of 25-35 billable hours per week in addition to administration time unless you want to work more. Our compensation arrangement allows you to in most cases set your own schedule around your family. We offer full benefits, including health insurance, 401k/matching, etc.

• We are open to working with attorneys who have experience regularly handling evidentiary hearings and trials in divorce and family law cases.

• The attorney position after a training period will be to assume a “first chair” or “lead attorney” type role for marital and family law cases. While we believe and offer training, mentoring, and guidance, the attorney we hire needs to be able to confidently handle all aspects of client representation from initial meeting through trial.

• Many of our clients are middle-aged women who are intimidated by (or afraid of) their husbands. We do a lot of “hand holding” with our clients and listening to our clients. You need to be somebody who is passionate about empowering people and communicating with people to be happy working with us.

• We have a structured system of procedures for handling client work and all lawyers are actively managed by another attorney. We had a contest to internally name our client program procedures and the “Crazy Rule Book” was the winning entry. If you like structure and a project management philosophy, you’ll like it here. If you do not like oversight or doing things the “firm way” or learning new technology/methods of handling family law cases than this will not work for you.
