Build Your Family Law Career at Hemmat Law Group At Hemmat Law Group, you’ll work on some of the Pacific Northwest’s most complex family law matters while being supported by a team that is genuinely invested in your success. Whether you’re early in your career or an experienced attorney looking for a supportive, high-performing team, we’d love to hear from you. While family law experience is strongly preferred, we are open to attorneys with other litigation backgrounds who are excited to build a long-term career in family law. Founded in 1994 by Steven Amir Hemmat, a former DOJ trial attorney, Hemmat Law Group is a Seattle-based family law firm representing clients throughout Washington State. Our attorneys handle complex family law matters including divorce, child custody disputes, parenting plans, relocations, modifications, and high asset divorces. We are known for providing clear guidance, strong advocacy, and practical solutions during some of the most difficult periods in our clients’ lives. Why Attorneys Choose HLG Focus on Practicing Law We believe attorneys should spend their time advocating for clients, developing case strategy, and practicing law—not managing administrative tasks. That’s why we’ve built a support structure that allows attorneys to focus on legal work rather than everything that comes with running a practice. At HLG, you’ll have: A dedicated intake team that handles consultations and lead follow-up. A billing team that manages invoicing and collections. Experienced paralegals and legal support staff. Operations, HR, IT, and administrative support. Modern technology and systems designed to streamline your practice. You won’t be expected to generate your own leads, manage collections, or wear every hat in the firm. Meaningful Litigation Experience Our attorneys handle sophisticated family law matters involving high-conflict custody disputes, high-asset divorces, relocations, modifications, and contested litigation. You’ll gain meaningful responsibility while working alongside experienced family law attorneys. Mentorship That Matters We believe great attorneys are developed through mentorship, collaboration, and experience. Whether you’re newer to family law or bringing years of litigation experience, you’ll work alongside attorneys who are invested in your success. Questions are encouraged, ideas are welcomed, and no one is expected to figure everything out alone. A Collaborative Team We value initiative, curiosity, and open communication. You’ll have the autonomy to manage your work while being backed by talented colleagues who genuinely want to see you succeed. We Like Working Together We believe strong teams are built through both collaboration and connection. In addition to working closely together, we host quarterly team events, celebrate milestones, and create opportunities for attorneys and staff to connect outside of client work.
