Job Description

Senior Attorney – Divorce & Family Law (Litigation)

Williamsville, NY | Full-Time


The Role

We’re hiring a litigation-focused divorce and family law attorney (4–8 years preferred; 3–4+ minimum) who thrives in a model where the firm sets strategic direction and the associate owns disciplined, high-output execution.


The Attorney We Want

You’re likely a fit if you are:

- Courtroom-confident and respected by judges and opposing counsel. 

- A disciplined, high-output executor who hits deadlines and owns results.

- Emotionally mature under pressure—you lower the emotional temperature rather than fan flames

- Strategically grounded — you do not get caught up in the client’s emotions or encourage clients to fight just to fight 

- Coachable and team-aligned: comfortable with oversight and delegation, without ego or authority competition.

- Long-term oriented and seeking to build a career within a stable, growing institution.

- Systems-minded and comfortable with KPIs and performance standards.

- Tech fluent or comfortable learning tech and able to leverage modern tools ethically to increase efficiency


We are building institutional durability, not personality-driven lawyering.


How We Run Files

-The firm leads strategy and sets communication standards on every matter. 

-The associate drives execution. That means:

You move the file forward, 

You anticipate next steps and flag risks early, 

You maintain clean, well-documented files

You operate with autonomy inside a clearly defined structure


We value alignment, professionalism, and collaboration. This is not a lone-wolf environment.


Compensation

$135,000 base plus performance-based bonus structure and benefits, including health insurance and 401(k).  


Compensation grows with production, reliability, and contribution to firm stability.


Who We Are

We’re building a high-performance divorce and family law firm designed to help people move from chaos to clarity, toward fairness, stability, and new beginnings.


We believe the best outcomes come from credibility, disciplined strategy, and calm professionalism, not emotional escalation or scorched-earth tactics.


Our goal is not simply to “win” cases. It is to improve lives by guiding clients and their families from conflict toward stability through clear thinking, strong advocacy, and repeatable systems.


We operate with strong structure, shared standards, and measurable accountability. If you thrive in disciplined environments where expectations are clear and performance matters, you’ll fit well here.


How to Apply

Please submit:

- Resume

- Writing sample (anonymized motion or memo preferred)

- Short cover letter answering:

  • Why you chose this profession and this practice area
  • What motivates you. 
  • What makes you get out of bed each day and do right by your clients.
