Probate Attorney

Shea Law, PLLC

Job Description

Job Description

We’re looking for an experienced probate attorney to join our Southfield team. This is a full-time, hybrid position with a 40-hour workweek and no weekends required.

The ideal candidate combines strong attention to detail with a personable, compassionate approach. You’ll help clients navigate probate matters during important—and often difficult—transitions, providing clear guidance and keeping their matters moving forward.

What you’ll do

  • Handle probate and estate administration matters.
  • Prepare and review petitions, pleadings, and other legal documents.
  • Represent clients in probate court proceedings.
  • Communicate with clients, beneficiaries, courts, and other professionals.
  • Manage deadlines, maintain organized files, and collaborate with our attorneys and support team.

What we’re looking for

  • An active Michigan law license in good standing.
  • Approximately 1–3 years of relevant legal experience, preferably in probate or estate administration.
  • Strong writing, communication, and organizational skills.
  • A proactive approach and the ability to follow through.
  • A positive, collaborative attitude and a commitment to thoughtful client service.
  • Experience in elder law or Medicaid planning is a plus, but is not required.
Company Description

Our firm's mission is to give every client the same access to high-quality estate planning documents and bespoke probate and trust administration service that the wealthy enjoy. We believe that every home needs some form of estate protection, and we are committed to using technology and automation to make the process as simple and affordable for our clients as we possibly can. Come join a team that understands our people are our biggest asset and are committed to helping you achieve personal growth and continued success in your career.
