About The Position

This is a law clerk to associate attorney position, with pay to modify and change once bar passage is received. We are anticipating hiring a candidate who is presently studying for the July 2026 bar exam and targeting a start date in August. This position will begin as a law clerk position and then transition to an associate attorney role once bar passage is received. Candidates must have a strong desire to practice family law, work with private clients, appear in court, and help real people. Our ideal candidate has a desire to grow in their knowledge and practice as an attorney, and understands that their learning as an attorney does not end with bar passage - it merely begins there.
