Are you an attorney looking for purpose-driven work that makes a real impact on families and individuals? Whether you are newly licensed or have experience in another legal field, this is your chance to build a career that combines legal skill with human connection.

Our growing elder law practice is seeking a compassionate and driven Associate Attorney to join our team, with a primary focus on Estate Planning— helping clients preserve assets, plan for the future, and ensure their wishes are carried out with dignity and clarity.

About the Role:

As an Associate Attorney, you will be trained to become a trusted advisor to individuals and their families, helping them make critical decisions about estate planning, long-term care, asset protection, public benefits (such as Medicaid), and quality of life. You’ll also support related practice areas including guardianship, probate, special needs planning, and litigation involving exploitation or trust disputes.

This role blends advocacy, strategy, and client relationships—and is ideal for attorneys who want their work to matter.

Key Responsibilities:
  • Develop personalized estate plans tailored to each client’s needs
  • Advise clients on long-term care planning and asset protection
  • Assist with guardianship, probate, and elder law litigation
  • Build strong, empathetic relationships with clients and families navigating sensitive issues
  • Draft legal documents and handle court hearings as needed
What We’re Looking For:
  • Licensed to practice law in the State of Florida
  • Open to newly licensed attorneys or those transitioning from other practice areas
  • Genuine interest in estate planning, elder law, and serving vulnerable populations
  • Excellent communication, organization, and problem-solving skills
  • Litigation or courtroom experience is a plus, but not required
  • Self‑motivated, compassionate, and eager to learn
Why This Role Matters:

Estate planning is more than legal work—it’s advocacy for dignity, independence, and peace of mind. You’ll guide families through some of life’s most important decisions, backed by a supportive team and mission-driven culture.

What We Offer:
  • Competitive salary ($70,000-$100,000) to start, along with discretionary bonus plan
  • Health and (upcoming) retirement benefits
  • Training in estate planning and elder law specialties Job Type:
