The posting

  • EMPLOYMENT TYPE: Full-Time
  • LOCATION: Texas
  • SALARY RANGE: $70,000-$130,000 base salary, negotiable based on experience

About the Role

You will take ownership of estate planning, probate, guardianship, and related litigation matters from intake through resolution. This is a hands-on role for an attorney who is equally comfortable developing sophisticated estate plans and advocating for clients in contested proceedings.

You will inherit the support structure needed to focus on legal work rather than lead generation, collections, or administrative follow-up. The ideal attorney can become productive quickly, navigate the firm's technology confidently, and provide thoughtful, high-level counsel to families during some of their most consequential decisions and transitions.

Responsibilities

  • Lead estate planning, probate, guardianship, and trust matters from initial consultation through final resolution.
  • Develop legal strategies for contested and uncontested probate and guardianship proceedings.
  • Represent clients in Texas probate courts in matters including will contests, fiduciary disputes, and related litigation.
  • Draft, review, and approve comprehensive estate plans tailored to clients' family, asset, and legacy objectives.
  • Conduct legal research and develop clear, practical recommendations for complex estate and probate matters.
  • Manage depositions, mediations, hearings, discovery, and other key phases of litigation.
  • Counsel families through wealth preservation, incapacity planning, probate administration, and difficult fiduciary or guardianship issues.
  • Maintain strong client relationships through responsive, empathetic, and straightforward legal guidance.
  • Collaborate with attorneys, paralegals, administrative professionals, and billing teams to move matters forward efficiently.
  • Manage your caseload and billable work effectively within the firm's established systems and technology environment.

Requirements

Must-Have:

  • J.D. from an accredited law school.
  • Active membership in good standing with the State Bar of Texas.
  • Minimum of 2 years of experience as a licensed attorney.
  • Hands-on experience with estate planning, probate, guardianship, or closely related Texas legal matters.
  • Ability to handle both estate planning drafting and litigation responsibilities.
  • Experience representing clients in hearings, litigation proceedings, negotiations, mediations, or depositions.
  • Ability to work effectively within legal practice management and other technology-based workflows.

Nice to Have:

  • Experience handling contested probate, will contests, trust disputes, or breach of fiduciary duty matters.
  • Experience with contested and uncontested guardianship proceedings.
  • Background developing sophisticated or high-net-worth estate plans.
  • Experience joining an established caseload and becoming independently productive quickly.

Benefits

  • Competitive Earnings: Attractive Base Salary (commensurate with experience) + a lucrative bi-weekly billable hour bonus structure with $70k+ annual upside.
  • The Essentials: 401(k) with up to 5% company match. Affordable Medical, Dental, and Vision plans with Short/Long Term Disability and Voluntary Term Life Insurance.
  • Real Balance: Generous PTO, company holidays, and an earned hybrid option (1–2 days remote) designed to protect your work-life balance and mental health.
  • Real Support: Dedicated administrative support and billing teams assigned to your cases so you can focus entirely on managing your clients' journeys.

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.
