  • 10+ years of experience in trusts and estates or private wealth planning at a law firm.
  • Significant experience with sophisticated estate planning, transfer tax planning, trust and estate administration, and fiduciary counseling.
  • Strong understanding of estate tax, gift tax, and generation-skipping transfer (GST) tax issues.
  • Excellent drafting, analytical, communication, and client relationship management skills.

  • Comprehensive benefits package including medical, dental, vision, retirement benefits, paid time off, and firm-sponsored wellness programs.
  • Opportunity to join a nationally recognized private wealth practice offering sophisticated client work, meaningful leadership opportunities, professional development, and a collaborative environment focused on long-term client relationships and practice growth.
