Job description

Description

Do you want to wake up every day and provide peace-of-mind to real, hard-working families?

AlerStallings law firm is looking for an experienced estate planning associate to support our client base in the Columbus area (Office Locations in Dublin, Polaris and Easton). We know getting started in the legal industry can be challenging. We know about stressful billable hour requirements. We know the challenges of tackling new systems and a new niche area of the law. We know about the lack of culture, training, and team-oriented support missing from most law firms stuck in the 80s and 90s.

AlerStallings built our firm to change the legal industry for our clients as well as for the attorneys we hire. You don't need to have graduated from the fanciest law school or worked at the biggest firm to succeed here.

We are an estate planning law firm. That means we plan, or deal with in real time, everyday life events - marriage, kids, retirement, sickness, and death. On the worst day of our clients' lives, we're often their first call. That responsibility is huge, and we do not take it lightly. Our heart, patience, and compassion separate us from other firms.

And it's working. Today, we are one of the largest estate planning companies in Ohio, with nearly 20 offices and a track record of helping thousands of Ohio families. We're now expanding our legal services to serve families in Michigan and would welcome the opportunity to benefit from your expertise and support.

What we ask

• Client Engagement: we deliver leads from preferred providers, seminars, radio, internet, and TV shows (The Expedition Retirement Show) - we expect you to engage these clients so that we can help them navigate life's legal hurdles.
• Customer Service: Providing excellent customer service to our clients, particularly demonstrating the patience and communication excellence necessary to connect with our clientele.
• Transactional Excellence: the estate planning practice has numerous cases, calls and other responsibilities concurrently happening each day, so team members must be world-class at prioritization, organization, and delegation to succeed in this role.

What we provide:

• Prospects - you do NOT need to bring, or even build your own book of business to be successful here, just your talent to engage and support the clients we provide.
• Existing Clients - we have thousands of existing clients that require our support.
• Competitive Base Salary ($125,000 - $150,000) based on experience, plus other Bonus incentives.
• Generous time off policy, Health Insurance, Dental Insurance, 401(k), Vision Insurance & Life Insurance.

Requirements

• Two (2) years+ of client-facing attorney experience.
• Admission to Ohio Bar.
• Admission to Indiana Bar (not a requirement, but nice-to-have).
• Estate Planning, Administration, and Elder Care law experience is preferred.
• GRIT - we built this company brick by brick on a blue-collar mindset where accountability, ownership, problem-solving, and toughness still matter in this workplace.

This role is in office and there is some regional travel required to our office locations in Easton, Polaris and Dublin.
