  • Train and develop knowledge in special needs planning , including special needs trusts and related strategies, with mentorship and support from senior attorneys.

What We Offer :

  • 100% remote work (serve clients anywhere in CA), but would be comfortable and confident appearing in court.
  • Flexible hours that fit your life
  • A compassionate, collaborative team
  • Purposeful work helping families plan for their most vulnerable loved ones
  • Qualifications

  • Active member in good standing with the California Bar.
  • Experience in probate and / or limited conservatorships is required.
  • Comfortable and confident appearing in court.
  • Strong legal drafting, research, and communication skills.
  • Demonstrated ability to manage multiple matters independently while collaborating with a team.
  • A genuine interest in learning special needs planning and expanding practice expertise.
  • Compassionate, client-focused approach with a high standard of professionalism.
  • Compensation and Benefits :

  • Salary : $150,000 / yr
  • This is for a 40 hrs / week position, but required 1300 billable hours / year
  • Flexible Hours
  • 401K matching
  • Health benefits
  • This role is ideal for a seasoned attorney ready for a new chapter in a supportive, values-aligned environment.

    We understand the complexities of navigating new opportunities in the legal space. You can trust that all employment inquiries are kept strictly confidential.
