Oregon Family Law Attorney Washington Family Law Attorney Description

Are you a family law attorney who thrives in court, values teamwork, and wants to focus on clients instead of finding them? Sherwood Family Law and Vancouver Family Law are growing and looking for a full-time attorney to join our close-knit team.

We believe in guiding clients through their hardest times with compassion and clarity. If you’re ready to join a firm that cares deeply about both clients and team members, we’d love to hear from you.

• 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 non-billable time requirements for consultations or marketing duties

• 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.

• A family law attorney with at least one year of Oregon or Washington 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

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.

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 which will immediately save you 400hrs of non-billable work annually.

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 and personal time.

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

• 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.
