Full Job Description
We are looking for a full-time, Virginia-licensed attorney with experience in probate and estate administration who would enjoy the opportunity to interact with clients daily, design and execute strategies for their cases, and have significant independence in handling their caseload while at the same time having a strong support system from an excellent team of attorneys and committed support team members. Our firm exists to help those who wish to obtain legal protection and security for their families, sometimes in the wake of a personal, professional, or financial loss, and this position is crucial in allowing us to effectively help them.

We like our attorneys to focus on doing what they do best, which is excellent legal work. Therefore, we do not expect our attorneys to be responsible for any business development, attending bar association mixers, or engaging in marketing for the firm, unless they want to. We do not expect our attorneys to file documents, troubleshoot printers, or write blogs. We are well-staffed and are proud to have a happy team, a structure that gives our attorneys access to a reliable support team for assistance. This allows our attorneys to focus on their core talents and work efficiently.

Our firm is professionally managed, and our office is a team environment. You will be working with other dedicated members of our team who work hard to get the job done right, who take pride in their work, and who support each other through thick and thin.

Additional qualifications include:
  • Experience in probate and estate administration.
  • Excellent communication skills and ability to genuinely connect with clients and potential clients.
  • Excellent organizational skills and ability to closely follow established policies and procedures.
  • Experience in fiduciary or estate litigation is a plus, but not required.
  • DC and/or Maryland licenses are a plus, but not required.


Compensation is in the range of $120,000-$170,000+, depending on experience.

Additional benefits include:
  • Work-from-home Mondays
  • Origination bonuses
  • Health/dental/vision insurance
  • 401(k) with an employer match
  • Life and disability insurance
  • Paid holidays
  • Paid time off
  • Full estate plan
  • CLE stipend
  • Paid membership in certain professional organizations
  • Access to professional and educational resources
  • Fun and growth-driven team events
  • Complimentary snacks and beverages
  • Free and convenient parking
  • A beautiful, new, and clean work environment
