Associate Attorney – Family Law
Location: Hybrid, but in person and Court attendance required. Santa Clara County, CA
At Hepner & Pagan, LLP , we know being a lawyer is more than just billable hours. It’s about building a career you’re proud of—without burning out along the way. That’s why we’ve built a firm where attorneys do impactful work for clients and still make time for life outside the office.
If you’re a motivated attorney who thrives on litigation, values collaboration, and wants a long-term place to grow, we’d love to meet you.
Why Join Us?
We’re not just another family law firm. Here’s what sets us apart:
- Flexibility That’s Real – PTO (that people actually take), hybrid work options, and a supportive team culture.
- Invested in Your Growth – We cover your MCLEs, CA Bar dues, and provide mentorship and real opportunities for advancement.
- Competitive Compensation & Benefits – 401(k) with matching, performance and billable bonuses, plus a salary range that recognizes your experience.
- Culture That Connects – Regular team bonding events, collaborative colleagues, and a leadership team that values your input.
What You’ll Do
You’ll play a key role in helping clients navigate family law litigation with both advocacy and compassion. Responsibilities include:
- Drafting and reviewing motions, discovery, and judicial council forms
- Managing client communications with clarity and professionalism
- Conducting legal research and supporting case strategy
- Court appearances and depositions
- Contributing to a team that values both precision and creativity in legal advocacy
Who We’re Looking For
- JD from an accredited law school & active California Bar membership (good standing required)
- Prior Family Law experience is requested, but at least 1 year experience working in private practice.
- A proactive, team-oriented approach—you want to grow and help those around you succeed
About Us
Hepner & Pagan is a woman-founded, client-focused firm dedicated to excellence, integrity, and results. We’ve grown steadily since 2018 because we put people first—our clients and our team.
If you’re looking for a firm where your career can thrive without sacrificing your well-being, this is it.
