Family Law Attorney

High standards. Real investment. A firm that actually takes care of its people. Who we are At Slovensky Law, we help people reclaim control of their lives during a family crisis — and we take that seriously. Our mission is to provide clear, honest, strategic guidance that empowers clients to make informed decisions, even when those decisions are hard. We celebrate attorneys who find creative, unconventional solutions to family law problems. If you see a case file as an opportunity to build someone a better future, you'll fit right in. We're a collaborative, high-performing firm with a culture we've worked hard to build. Our office has a garden in it. That's not an accident — it reflects how we think about the environment we work in. We believe people do their best work when they're supported, energized, and not buried in administrative tasks they shouldn't be handling. We absolutely refuse to tolerate high-maintenance, humorless, self-entitled, or self-important individuals — no matter how talented they are. The role You’ll take full ownership of family law cases from inception through disposition. That means discovery, pleadings, motions, depositions, mediation, hearings, and trial. You’ll also have a paralegal supporting you, so you can stay focused on doing legal work — not scanning documents. (That said: if the printer jams and you’re standing right next to it, we expect you to at least try to fix it before asking for help.) Day to day, you will: Manage your own caseload with full ownership from intake to resolution Conduct client counseling, set realistic expectations on risk, cost, and timeline Draft and finalize pleadings, discovery, settlement agreements, and pretrial briefs Delegate effectively to paralegals and review their work for quality Maintain organized e-files using firm templates and checklists Show up to court on time, prepared, and projecting the competence our clients deserve What we’re looking for Skills matter, but so does who you are. We need someone who: Has a JD and an active Virginia State Bar license in good standing Brings proven family law experience and can hit the ground running after onboarding Thinks creatively and celebrates finding solutions others wouldn’t think to try Can tell a client — with compassion and directness — that spending $500 to fight over a $50 lamp isn’t the right call Reads financial statements, understands equitable distribution, and can build a solid time‑sharing plan Knows that being a great lawyer sometimes means wearing multiple hats — and doesn’t resent it How we measure success Billable hours: 1,200 / yr Time tracked daily: 99% Correspondence replied: 90% in 1 day Status updates: 95% on time What you get We invest in our people — genuinely. Here’s what that looks like: Elite training We’ve sent attorneys to the most prestigious trial colleges in the US and to top programs on client satisfaction. We pay for your CLE, bar dues, and approved bar memberships. Unlimited PTO Hit your 1,200‑1,400 hours. Take the time you need. We mean it. Full benefits Health insurance, disability insurance, and 401K. Real advancement No arbitrary timelines. Growth is earned — but it’s available. Attorneys who consistently exceed their KPIs can lead a niche practice, earn significantly more, and reach senior status. Paralegal support You’ll have dedicated support staff so you can focus on the legal work that actually requires you. Compensation Base salary commensurate with experience, plus performance and production bonuses. #J-18808-Ljbffr
