We are seeking a capable, motivated Associate Attorney with at least 1-3 years of real‑world experience in divorce, estate planning, and/or probate to join our growing law firm.

  • Appear in court, mediation and communicate with clients, and move cases forward
  • Work closely with support staff to ensure efficient case progression
  • You will not be micromanaged, but you will be expected to take ownership of your cases.

  • Licensed Michigan attorney in good standing
  • 1-3 years of hands‑on legal experience (family law, probate, or estate planning preferred)
  • Comfortable handling client matters with minimal supervision
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills
  • Organized, reliable, and professional
  • Interested in long‑term growth with a stable firm
What We Offer
  • Competitive salary based on experience
  • Performance‑based bonus opportunities
  • Supportive, team‑oriented culture
