Family Law Attorney: Kicking Ass in Court and in Life
Salary not disclosed
Butte, MT 3 days ago

Family Law Attorney — Kicking Ass in Court and in Life


Most law firms will tell you they’re “fast-paced,” “professional,” and “client-focused.”

We’ll tell you the truth: we kick ass.

At Vicevich Law, we built a new kind of Montana law firm — one where great attorneys do high-level work without selling their souls to the billable-hour gods. We fight hard for our clients, we win, and then we go fishing, skiing, or horseback riding because life in Montana is too good not to enjoy it.


The Gig


We’re looking for a Family Law Attorney who’s equal parts strategist, problem-solver, and decent human being. You’ll handle family law cases across Montana. We work smart, use tech that actually helps, and back each other up.

You won’t be chained to a desk or a time sheet.

You’ll have autonomy, support, and the kind of balance most lawyers only dream about.


What You’ll Do


Client intake

Client counseling

Drafting pleadings, motions, discovery requests and responses, and proposals

Mediation/Arbitration

Hearings and Trials

Handle family law cases like the pro you are

Collaborate with financial advisors, accountants, and our team of legal badasses

Bring empathy, clarity, and confidence to every client interaction


What You Bring


JD + Montana Bar admission (or ability to get it)

Strong knowledge of family law

Excellent communication skills — you can explain complex things simply

A sense of humor, a work ethic, and a pulse (we like people who are alive)

Bonus points if you’ve ever caught a trout before court


The Perks

$120K salary with reasonable expectations or $80K + commission if you like controlling your own earnings

Paid time off + holidays

No arbitrary billable-hour quota

A team that values results, respect, and actual lives outside of work

Montana — where your money goes further and your weekends are better


Why Vicevich Law


Because we’re not here to play by the old rules.

We’ve ditched the warehouse firm model and built a place where great lawyers can do their best work and still make it home before sunset.

If your idea of a good law firm involves collaboration, excellence, humor, and yes — kicking ass for your clients — then you’ll fit right in here.

Salary not disclosed
Los Angeles 2 days ago
We don't just practice employment law.

We change it.

This isn't a research role — it's something rarer: It's the attorney who shapes the law itself.

As our Law & Motion Attorney, you'll work directly with firm shareholders to craft the appellate filings and dispositive motions that defend our record-setting verdicts and build California employment case law.

Your words will be cited by courts.

Your arguments will protect wins that changed workers' lives.

AT A GLANCE #1 Ranked Plaintiff Employment Firm in CA Record-Setting Verdicts Day One — Meaningful Writing Work One-on-One — Partner Mentorship THE OPPORTUNITY This is the role built for attorneys who want to shape the law, not just argue it.

At most firms, law and motion work is treated as a research role.

At Shegerian & Associates, it's a cornerstone of how we win — and how we protect those wins on appeal.

From day one, you'll work directly with firm shareholders on the briefs, motions, and appellate filings that defend our record-setting verdicts and advance California employment law.

We represent workers who've been wrongfully terminated, harassed, and discriminated against.

The stakes are personal.

The advocacy is aggressive.

And the legal writing we produce doesn't just support cases, it creates precedent.

What You'll Do Draft and refine the high-stakes legal writing that happens after the verdict, appeals, dispositive motions, and strategic briefs that hold our wins and advance the law in favor of employees across California.

Benefits Compensation Base salary of $180,000-$250,000 commensurate with experience, plus performance-based commission Benefits That Actually Cover You Your health is fully covered.

The firm pays 100% of premiums for dental, vision, and Silver-level medical — zero cost to you.

Add a firm-contributed $500 FSA and you're covered from day one.

High-Impact Work Your writing will directly influence trial outcomes in some of the most significant employment cases in the country.

Retirement Built to Compound Approximately 10% employer retirement contribution (3% Safe Harbor + 7% Profit Sharing) — well above industry standard and structured to grow significantly over time.

Time & Flexibility Hybrid workplace.

80 hours PTO, sick time, and yes — your birthday off.

Because the firm actually means it when they say they care about their people.

The Professional Stuff, Covered Bar dues, MCLEs, and referral bonuses are all on the firm.

Stay sharp, stay connected, and get rewarded for bringing in collegues.

Culture You Can Feel Firm-sponsored social and networking events that build real relationships — not just an item on a benefits sheet.

Who We're Looking For A California-barred attorney with 4+ years of focused legal research and writing experience — ideally in employment law.

You're the right fit if you: Are a genuinely exceptional writer who doesn't just state the law — you make the argument feel inevitable Bring creativity and craft to every brief finding the angle others miss, structuring arguments that stick Have a track record with dispositive motions, appellate filings, or high-impact briefs Can work independently while staying tightly connected to a litigation team Care about the outcome, not just the prose This role rewards attorneys who think of legal writing as a discipline — where word choice, structure, and narrative are are as important as the citations.
