Managing Attorney

We're a tight-knit law firm that serves Alaska. We're looking for a hands-on Managing Attorney who can lead people, run an efficient office, and practice law with judgment and heart. If you like clear expectations, well-run systems, and coaching a small team to deliver great client service, we'd like to talk. We are a fun and dynamic work environment and it will be unlike any other law firm you have worked with.

The Role

This position combines legal leadership with practical operations. You'll manage attorneys and staff, oversee calendars and case flow, and ensure the office runs smoothly day to day. You'll also maintain an active caseload aligned with your background (any practice area welcome; probate or immigration experience is a plus).

Responsibilities

• Lead day-to-day operations across our two branded practices; set standards for client intake, file management, calendaring, and communication.
• Supervise and mentor attorneys and support staff; set priorities, delegate, and provide timely feedback and coaching.
• Own basic office administration with the Office Manager : workflows, policies, vendor coordination, equipment uptime, and records compliance.
• Oversee billing hygiene and light bookkeeping with support : trust accounting review, invoicing cadence, A / R follow-up, and monthly reconciliations in QuickBooks Online.
• Drive matter management and timelines; ensure hearings, filings, and service requirements are met, and risks are surfaced early.
• Track simple KPIs (intake volume, response times, WIP / AR, aging) and use them to guide improvements.
• Handle a direct caseload suited to your skills; appear in court or before agencies as needed.
• Partner with the owners on hiring, onboarding, training, and performance reviews.
• Model client-first service, plain-English communication, and accountability throughout the firm.
