Attorney / Senior Associate - Trusts and Estates
$200kWe Are Legal Revolution
Estate Planning Attorney ⚖️ Sophisticated HNW Work | High Growth Boutique | Real Origination Opportunity Chicago (Hybrid) Up to $200K Base + Bonus
I’m working closely with a rapidly growing Chicago boutique that is quietly becoming one of the most exciting platforms in the market for attorneys looking to combine high-quality work, strong earning potential, and genuine career progression.
• Sophisticated estate planning work (not basic wills)
• A firm where business development is genuinely rewarded
• A collaborative environment with no internal politics or silos
Why This Firm Stands Out
Serious Growth — Not Just Talk
• The firm has doubled in size and office space in recent years
• Continued expansion across corporate, real estate, and niche sectors
• Strong internal referrals = immediate cross-selling opportunities
Collaborative, “Givers Gain” Culture
• No silos — attorneys actively share work and clients
• Leadership is hands-off but highly supportive
• Hybrid model tailored to individuals (not one-size-fits-all)
A genuinely adult environment where you’re trusted to perform
High-Quality, Sophisticated Client Base
• Work with:
o Family-owned businesses; Entrepreneurs; High-net-worth individuals
• Exposure to complex estate planning strategies and tax-sensitive matters
Notable firm successes include:
• Appellate victory securing $700K+ in damages
• Significant fraud recovery judgments for business clients
Clear Path to Growth & Earnings
• Strong mentorship from recognised attorneys (including “40 Under 40” talent)
• Huge demand in estate planning = significant runway for growth
• 20% origination credit on new business
Described internally as: “shooting fish in a barrel” for building a book
⚖️ The Role
This is a hands-on estate planning position with real responsibility:
• Draft sophisticated wills and trusts (full lifecycle estate planning)
• Handle high-net-worth client relationships directly
• Work across:
o Gift & estate tax (706 / 709 exposure)
o Probate matters
o Advanced planning strategies
What They’re Looking For
✔️ 5+ years’ experience in estate planning
✔️ Strong drafting experience across wills, trusts, and estate structures
✔️ Exposure to gift/estate tax and probate
Compensation
Up to $200K base (DOE)
Bonus + 20% origination credit
Strong long-term earning potential
