Family Law Attorney - Req

Position: Family Law Attorney - 2yr Exp Req
Location: Sherwood

* Family Law Attorney
* Considering applying for this job Do not delay, scroll down and make your application as soon as possible to avoid missing out.

* Description
* Sherwood Family Law is hiring an experienced family law litigator who is ready for a better environment. If you have spent the last few years carrying a heavy caseload in a messy or understaffed firm and want a place with real support, predictable systems, and a team that works together, this is the role.

We are not looking for a beginner and this is not a training role. We are looking for an attorney who knows the work, wants to get better, and wants a firm that reflects their standards.

Position open in our Sherwood, OR office.

* What You Will Get:
* * A full caseload

* A strong paralegal partner who knows how to support a family law practice

* A team that communicates clearly and has zero internal drama

* A firm that prepares early, stays organized, and values smart strategy

* A excellent salary and bonus structure that rewards consistent performance

* Paid health, dental, vision, PLF coverage, bar dues, 401(K) and CLEs

* A manageable schedule that respects your time

* Hybrid work options

* A stable firm culture without chaos

* No time requirements for consultations or marketing duties

* What You Will Do:

* * Handle divorce and custody cases from start to finish

* Develop strategy early and communicate it clearly to clients

* Take responsibility for hearings, conferences, negotiations, and trial preparation

* Work with a team that prepares thoroughly and does not push problems forward

* Contribute to a culture of professionalism, empathy, and preparation

* Who We Want:
* * A family law attorney with at least two years of Oregon family law practice

* Someone who has appeared in court and can handle hearings without hand holding

* An attorney who is organized, reliable, and follows through

* Someone who can manage clients under stress without losing their own footing

* A professional who wants a healthy, team-oriented environment

* No sharp elbows

If your previous firm left you exhausted from poor systems, inconsistent support, or internal conflict, you will find the difference here immediately. We run a tight ship. We prepare early. We support each other. We treat clients with respect and deliver work that is thorough and organized.

* Compensation:
* The role is intentionally structured around a light annual billable expectation of 1,200 hours, with the option to take on additional work beyond that threshold. This structure is by design. We do not require non-billable business development or consult work.

Base salary varies by experience and typically falls in the low-to-mid $100

Ks (DOE), with additional compensation earned through performance-based bonuses tied directly to billable work above the required threshold. Attorneys who elect to carry higher caseloads can earn total compensation exceeding $250,000, while maintaining control over workload.

We provide full benefits and a stable caseload so you can focus on practicing law and producing consistently.

* Our Core Values:
*
* * Understanding and Empathy.
* We believe that the only way to help our clients is to walk a mile in their shoes. We deeply understand that a custody or divorce is the hardest thing our clients have ever had to experience.

* * Always Being Prepared.
* We don’t kick the can down the road and we prepare from the beginning with a solid plan. We live and die by our calendars.

* * Playing By The Rules.
* We don't take short cuts and we believe the rules matter. Yes, it drives us a little bit crazy when an opposing party files their hearing memorandum the morning of trial.

* * No Sharp Elbows.
* We are a tight knit team and value compassion and hard work. We've all had an experience of working at a firm where yelling and abrasiveness was just another day in the office -- it isn't for us.

* * Finding The Answers.
* We try our hardest to find the answers first. We love to learn and all strive to become the best. xrlwcon
