Job Description

About the Firm

Established and highly respected law firm in the Durham, North Carolina area is seeking an experienced estate planning attorney to join the practice in a partner-level role. This is a unique opportunity for an attorney who is looking for long-term stability, leadership potential, and the opportunity to eventually become a successor to an established estate planning practice. The firm is open to attorneys currently based in the Raleigh-Durham area or candidates planning to relocate to the region.

Position Overview
The firm is seeking an estate planning attorney with substantial experience handling sophisticated estate planning matters. This opportunity is ideal for someone looking to step into a high-level role without the pressure of bringing an existing book of business or contributing a financial buy-in. The incoming attorney will work closely with firm leadership and play a key role in the long-term future and transition of the practice.

Responsibilities

  • Handle a broad range of estate planning matters for individuals and families
  • Draft and review wills, trusts, powers of attorney, and related estate planning documents
  • Advise clients on wealth preservation, estate administration, and long-term planning strategies
  • Build and maintain strong client relationships
  • Collaborate closely with firm leadership on long-term practice development and succession planning
  • Provide high-level legal counsel and strategic guidance to clients

Qualifications

  • J.D. from an accredited law school
  • Licensed and in good standing with the North Carolina Bar or eligible for admission
  • Minimum of 5 years of estate planning experience required, with additional experience strongly preferred
  • Strong technical estate planning knowledge and client relationship skills
  • Ability to independently manage sophisticated matters
  • Interest in long-term leadership and succession within the practice

Compensation & Benefits

  • Starting compensation of approximately $250,000+ annually
  • Base salary plus commission/bonus structure
  • No required book of business
  • No financial buy-in required
  • Established client base and steady workflow
  • Long-term growth and leadership opportunity within the firm
  • Supportive and well-established practice environment

Why Join
This is a rare opportunity for an experienced estate planning attorney to step into a true long-term partner-track role without the traditional barriers of a required book of business or buy-in. The firm is seeking someone who wants to become an integral part of the future of the practice while enjoying the support and reputation of an established Durham-area firm.
