Trust & Estates Associate — Succession Opportunity

Braintree & Needham, MA | Hybrid

A modern, highly respected 20+ attorney firm with offices in Braintree and Needham is seeking a talented Trust & Estates Associate to join its growing practice.

• Hybrid flexibility (3 days in-office / 2 remote)
• Compensation: $150K–$175K (commensurate with experience)
• Established client base with transition support
