Estate Planning Attorney

Estate Planning Associate Attorney

We're looking for an Estate Planning Associate Attorney who is as comfortable holding a family accountable for a difficult decision as they are drafting the documents that protect them.

At Coastal Legacy Law, our attorneys are educators and guides. You will sit across from families navigating aging, incapacity, and death, and your job is to lead those conversations with enough clarity and confidence that people leave with a plan they actually understand. That requires a specific kind of person: someone who is internally driven with a purpose to help others, is comfortable being direct and structured, but also is able to connect with the individual(s) across from them.

This is a full-time, hybrid role that travels between our DeLand and New Smyrna Beach offices. The option to work from home when not seeing in-person clients is available.

If you believe estate planning and elder law aren't just a legal service but one of the most important things a family can do, and you want to be the person who helps them see that, then keep reading and apply!

To apply, you must complete this application in its entirety, including completing all assessments as well as following all the instructions on the application email sent after applying. It will ask for a video submission. You must submit the video submission in order for your application to be considered complete.

Applications with no video submission will not be reviewed.

Tell us about a time you had to guide someone through a decision they were resisting or afraid to make. What was your approach, and what was the outcome?

Compensation: $80,000 – $98,000 base + performance bonuses. Salary range is based on depth and approach of experience. Candidates with experience in relationship-driven, education-based estate planning will be considered at the higher end of the range.

Benefits: 401(k) with employer match after 1 year, $300 monthly healthcare stipend (full benefits coming mid-2027), generous time off policy, and access to firm-sponsored conferences and professional training events.
