Location

This is a full-time, in-person opportunity in the Birmingham, Alabama area. Our practice is collaborative and client-facing, so the majority of work is performed in the office. We are generous with time off and may accommodate occasional work from home when necessary or appropriate, but this is not a hybrid or remote position.

Note

Candidates must be licensed to practice law in Alabama. We welcome Alabama-licensed attorneys who are interested in building a career in family law, including early-career attorneys. Experienced attorneys with an established book of business in a compatible practice area such as estates, criminal law, corporate law, transactional law, or real estate may also be considered for an equity partner opportunity.

About Us

We are an established Birmingham-area law practice focused on helping individuals and families navigate divorce, family law disputes, adoption, estate planning, and related legal matters. Our attorneys combine strong advocacy with practical guidance and an understanding of the financial and family dynamics involved in every case. We believe excellent representation means helping clients protect what matters most while moving confidently toward their next chapter. Confidential Employer.

Job Description

  • Manage cases from initial consultation through negotiation, mediation, hearings, trial, and resolution.
  • Draft pleadings, motions, agreements, discovery, correspondence, and other legal documents.
  • Conduct legal research and develop thoughtful case strategies based on each client's goals and circumstances.
  • Prepare for and appear at hearings, mediations, negotiations, and court proceedings.
  • Communicate directly with clients, opposing counsel, experts, and court personnel.
  • Counsel clients through sensitive and complex personal, financial, and family issues.
  • Collaborate with experienced attorneys and staff while developing increasing independence and responsibility.
  • Maintain organized case files, deadlines, calendars, and client communications.
  • Deliver professional, responsive, and compassionate client service.

Qualifications

  • Active license to practice law in Alabama required.
  • Genuine interest in family law required for associate-level candidates.
  • Family law, litigation, courtroom, mediation, or client-management experience is valuable but not required for first-year attorneys.
  • Strong legal writing, research, communication, and analytical skills.
  • Comfortable working directly with clients and handling sensitive legal matters.
  • Strong judgment, professionalism, organization, and attention to detail.
  • Ability to work primarily in office in the Birmingham area.

Why You Will Love Working Here

You will have the opportunity to do substantive legal work, build direct client relationships, and develop practical courtroom and litigation skills rather than spending your career on the sidelines.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
