We are working with a premier probate litigation law firm, focused on guiding its global, ultra-high-net-worth individual and institutional clients through the complexities of contested probate and civil court proceedings throughout California and Texas.
The firm seeks two (2) attorneys for its growing team, one for its Los Angeles office and one for its San Diego office. Salary is $140,000 - $240,000, depending upon experience, and more if the attorney brings a substantial book of business (not required for the position).
The firm offers a full range of benefits with details to be supplied by the firm.
About the Firm
The firm’s client-centered approach for achieving the best possible outcomes for its clients applies equally to its people-first foundation for its team.
The work is definitely very important; but the firm acknowledges that the people, family, and communities reliant upon its team members supply the root motivations for the firm’s hard work, including its efforts to encourage and support personal and professional growth and achievement and to celebrate and honor individual and team victories, regularly, with vigor.
If this firm’ s people-first values speak to you, and you are an attorney with the requisite experience in probate litigation, the firm would love to explore with you the possibility of joining its Los Angeles or San Diego office.
