Foresight over Expedience: During the very first call, you realize the prospective client is intensely focused on “punishing” their ex, which conflicts with our mission. You could book the sale immediately, but instead, you choose to spend extra time gently redirecting their focus toward long‑term peace and co‑parenting stability, ensuring the client we onboard is truly aligned with firm values and reducing conflict down the line. Proactive Communication: The new client hires us. Instead of just sending a boilerplate Notice of Appearance, you take five minutes to pick up the phone and introduce yourself to the opposing paralegal or counsel. You choose to set a positive, cooperative human tone right at the outset, knowing it prevents weeks of unnecessary adversarial friction later. Constructive Communication: Three months in, you are reviewing a case summary. You notice a phrase that unnecessarily criticizes the opposing party’s personal life. You choose to edit that phrase out , recognizing that preserving dignity—even when dealing with difficult facts—keeps the focus on legal solutions, leading to smoother negotiations and better client outcomes. Prioritizing Sustainable Health: When faced with a busy week of motions, you could try to handle every detail yourself, risking burnout and mistakes. Instead, you choose to proactively and effectively delegate research, drafting, and administrative tasks to your paralegal and legal assistant, maximizing the capacity of your entire legal pod and ensuring the team delivers high‑quality work without sacrificing their (or your) long‑term well‑being. Responsibilities Lead with Negotiation: Develop thoughtful strategies to meet client goals, prioritizing negotiation and settlement to achieve stable futures. Conflict‑Reduction: Actively pursue and implement collaborative solutions, minimizing the need for adversarial court proceedings. Advocate Responsibly: Represent clients in court when necessary, maintaining the firm’s commitment to respect and long‑term resolution. Mentorship & Leadership: Take advantage of the decades of legal experience amongst our other firm attorneys on case strategy and lead your dedicated legal pod (paralegals and legal assistants) in a supportive manner. High‑Quality Output: Review and finalize all legal documentation (pleadings, motions, agreements, judgments, and orders). Client Communication: Provide consistent monthly case updates that summarize progress and next steps for peace of mind. Qualifications Experience & Licensure: Current Washington State Bar license with 2‑5+ years of family law experience. (Trial experience is a plus, but a collaborative mindset is essential). The Truce Mindset: Demonstrably collaborative, growth‑minded, and empathetic approach to law and colleagues. Communication Mastery: Strong communication, organizational, and truly client‑centered skills. Team Focused: Motivated to advocate for clients’ best long‑term interests while valuing mentorship, teamwork, and continuous professional development. You’ll have full administrative and legal backing, including a Legal Assistant, Paralegal, Client Happiness Coordinator, and Billing Team to support you. Proactive Growth: A committed, continuous learner who is comfortable adopting modern technology, adapting to firm systems, and thriving in a professional environment dedicated to constant improvement.
