About Company

Who We Are : We are a probate and elder law firm that is on track for aggressive growth and we need motivated, experienced team members to work directly with the owners and attorneys to support the team and help clients.

We are a tech-forward firm, so you should be able to solve basic tech problems yourself. If you're not a fan of new tech, this position is probably not the best for you. Similarly, we're big believers in the importance of creating and fostering the client relationship. We’re not the type of people that try to handle everything over email – because frequently, it doesn’t work as well as a phone call, it’s not as personal, and law is a service industry.

We are a client and goal-focused firm known for educating and empowering clients to make informed choices, and for helping clients navigate the legal process and court system by supporting the whole person. We have a reputation for being effective and efficient.
