A bit about us:

Our client is a boutique estate planning and elder law firm that cares for clients like family. They pride themselves on simplifying complex legal issues, offering compassionate guidance, and fostering long-term relationships (rather than one-off transactions). Their practice areas include estate planning, elder law, probate & trust administration, conservatorship, and related matters.

We are seeking a strong litigation associate with several years of experience to support the firm’s disputes, fiduciary, and probate-driven litigation work. While probate litigation experience is a plus, candidates with solid civil litigation backgrounds will also be considered. The ideal attorney is smart, fast-paced, and above all, operates with the highest levels of integrity.

Why join us?
  • Competitive base salary + performance bonus / incentive
  • Health, dental, vision benefits
  • Continuing legal education support / bar dues
  • Flexible schedule / remote work (if applicable)
  • Opportunities for career growth and increasing responsibility

Job Details

  • Handle civil litigation matters (complaints, motions, discovery, depositions, hearings)
  • Draft and argue dispositive motions, pleadings, and substantive briefs
  • Work with clients, fiduciaries, trustees, and opposing counsel in contested matters
  • Conduct legal research and analysis on probate, trusts, estates, and related issues
  • Collaborate with senior partners and staff to strategize case approaches
  • Maintain timely communication with clients, courts, and stakeholders
  • Ensure adherence to ethical and professional standards in all matters
Qualifications
  • J.D. from accredited law school
  • Admission to the California Bar (or willing to become admitted)
  • Several years (e.g. 3–7) of litigation experience
  • Preferably some exposure or experience in probate, trust, or estate litigation
  • Strong writing, analytical, and oral advocacy skills
  • Ability to think quickly, manage multiple matters, and work under deadlines
  • Excellent integrity, ethics, and client-focused mindset
  • Strong interpersonal skills and ability to work collaboratively
