Hybrid Attorney - Family Law

Family Law Attorney — Ontario, CA | $120,000 - $200,000

We're a fast-growing family law firm (300% growth in 3 years) handling divorce, custody, and support for clients with $200k–$3M in household assets. We're looking for a 4-8 year attorney who can run cases now — negotiate, litigate, and write without hand-holding.

The Role

• Represent clients at RFOs, DVROs, MSCs, and Trials — Ontario, San Bernardino, Riverside, LA, and Orange County courts

• Draft MSC and Trial documents

• Negotiate settlements directly with opposing counsel

• Direct paralegals and case managers on discovery and document strategy — you're not doing admin work yourself. They prepare judicial council forms, declarations, and pleadings at your direction.

• Hybrid: work remote except for in-person hearings

What You Need

• Active CA Bar license, 4-8 years family law litigation experience

• Comfortable owning a caseload with minimal oversight

• Strong legal writing — persuasive, not padded

• Excellent litigation skills for hearings and trials

• Able to drive to hearings across the Inland Empire and LA/OC

• Comfortable in a paperless, multi-monitor tech setup

What We Offer

• $120,000–$200,000 base + performance and retention bonuses

• PTO, 401(k), flexible hours

• A support team that actually handles the document grind so you can focus on casework

• Meet with clients (phone, Zoom, in-person) to set strategy and gather case information

• Negotiate settlements with opposing counsel

• Direct evidence and discovery strategy — assign fact-gathering to Paralegals, manage document procurement

• Genuine warmth with clients who are scared, angry, or overwhelmed — able to hold empathy and give hard truths in the same conversation
