Job description

I'm partnering with an established, full-service Central Florida law firm seeking an attorney to join its Estate Planning & High Net Worth Planning team.

This could suit someone looking for sophisticated planning work within a lifestyle-oriented firm—or an attorney who wants to explore a different working arrangement on a lower reduced hour basis.

The firm is open to discussing:

• Potential remote working, provided you can attend the Orlando office when needed.
• A standard 1,700-hour annual billable expectation.
• A reduced-hours arrangement, potentially around 1,300 annual billable hours, with a corresponding reduction in compensation.

These arrangements would be discussed individually rather than treated as a one-size-fits-all model.

The opportunity:

Work alongside an established team advising high-net-worth individuals, families and business owners on estate planning, wealth transfer and tax matters. Depending on experience, responsibilities may include:

• Drafting estate-planning documents, including revocable and irrevocable trusts.
• Advising on estate, gift and generation-skipping transfer tax planning.
• Supporting business-succession and multigenerational wealth-transfer strategies.
• Working directly with clients and their financial, accounting and other professional advisers.

The Right Candidate has:

• LL.M. in Taxation is required.
• Must have experience with high net worth estate planning
• Firm is open to a range of experience levels, including attorneys developing their careers and more experienced practitioners seeking a different working model.
• Strong drafting skills, attention to detail, clear client communication and a genuine interest in sophisticated estate and tax planning are important.
• Florida Bar membership is preferred; candidates willing to sit for the Florida Bar may also be considered.
