Associate Attorney

We are a boutique law firm focused on children and families. We work in the areas of Family Law and Schools/Education Law. In our Family Law practice, we help families work through the difficulties associated with divorce and co-parenting. In our Schools/Education practice, we work to ensure that marginalized students are given the best shot to succeed as possible. We have a state-wide practice that litigates in both federal and state court. A perfect candidate is one who is team-oriented, caring, patient, detail-oriented, and passionate. The candidate we are looking for will be good at communicating their needs to the team and supporting other team members' needs. The candidate will want to litigate, which includes an appearance in court multiple times per month. Like all litigation positions, this position requires the ability to communicate well in writing through email and other correspondence as well as motion practice. We handle motions as small as motions to continue and as large as summary judgment briefs. If you think you could be a good fit, we encourage you to contact us.
