READY TO ADVANCE YOUR ESTATE PLANNING CAREER AND ESCAPE THE GRIND?

Are you ready to escape the high-pressure world of downtown and westside LA law firms? Enjoy working on sophisticated cases but craving more work-life balance and a friendlier, more personal environment? We may be the perfect fit for you.

We’re a boutique  Trusts and Estates firm near the beach,  serving the vibrant, affluent communities of the South Bay (Manhattan Beach, Hermosa, Redondo, and the PV Peninsula). Our clients — entrepreneurs, doctors, executives, and real estate pros — trust us to safeguard their hard-earned wealth and legacies. They rely on our expertise to navigate the complexities of estate and tax planning and count on our compassion to protect their families’ futures.

Here’s the kicker :  we do this while embracing a  balanced lifestyle  — no downtown grind, and no cutthroat atmosphere. We believe the best legal minds deserve to thrive, both professionally and personally. Our office is just minutes from the beach in Torrance, where we balance challenging, meaningful work with an environment that’s more supportive and people-focused.

WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR :

  • A  top-notch trusts and estates attorney  with 3+ years of experience in estate planning and administration, who loves working directly with clients.
  • Someone who thrives in a more personalized environment and can handle complex legal matters for high-net-worth clients with minimal supervision.
  • A lawyer who is self-sufficient and dependable, appreciates the details, is tech-savvy, marketing-oriented, and eager to take on significant responsibility in shaping estate strategies for affluent families.
  • Empathy and people skills  — you see a “file” as a family’s future and take pride in understanding their unique personal stories and challenges.

WHAT WE OFFER :

  • A  smaller, service-oriented team  where your work truly matters, and your contributions are recognized and appreciated.
  • Sophisticated, high-level estate planning work without the migraine-inducing commute downtown or the impersonal big-firm bureaucracy.
  • Real work-life balance  with time to enjoy living near the beach.
  • Competitive compensation with bonus potential, generous benefits, and a workplace culture that promotes growth and teamwork.
  • If you’re ready to trade the grind for an opportunity to do  meaningful work for high-level clients  in a supportive, family-oriented environment, send us your application today!

    Compensation :

    $140,000 - $180,000 yearly

    Responsibilities :

  • Collaborate with clients and other team members to move matters toward resolution efficiently
  • Contemporaneously memorialize discussions and decisions, and record your time, in our electronic case management system
  • Draft a high-quality, timely work product (correspondence, estate planning documents with customized provisions, court petitions, strategy recommendations, settlement agreements, etc.)
  • Prepare for and lead meetings with clients and their advisors
  • Represent clients at hearings and other legal proceedings
  • Review client issues on legal matters, analyze available options, and diligently work to determine the best course of action
  • Delegate work to paralegals and legal assistants and monitor / review their work
  • Qualifications :

  • Must have worked on estate planning and probate law issues for at least 1-2 years
  • 4-year degree with a legal background and J.D. degree are necessary for this position
  • Candidates should be great communicators, specifically in situations when emotions and stress are high
  • About Company
