Job description

Estate Planning Attorney - Hybrid Remote / Chicago - $150k to $200k Base + Bonus

A bit about us:

Based in Chicago, we are a 30+ attorney full-service firm with a general practice spanning T&E, business law and litigation, commercial and corporate work, real estate, employment, tax, and more than a dozen additional specialty areas. Our trusts and estates group counsels clients on sophisticated asset protection and wealth transfer — building personalized, flexible estate plans in close coordination with clients' financial advisors — and handles the full administration side, from estate and gift tax returns to estate and trust accountings. Because the platform is full-service, the T&E attorney isn't siloed: planning, business, and tax work feed each other and keep client relationships intact across generations.

• Base salary DOE + bonuses (hourly, origination, and discretionary)
• Hybrief remote flexibility
• Generous PTO, sick leave, and paid holidays
• Full-service platform — T&E work cross-pollinates with the business, tax, and real estate groups, with a built-in referral pipeline
• Direct client and financial-advisor relationships you own, not inherited file management

You’ll counsel individuals and families on sophisticated estate planning and asset protection, with occasional involvement in trust and estate administration.

• Design and draft personalized, flexible estate plans — wills, trusts, and wealth-transfer structures — coordinating with clients' financial advisors
• Some trust and estate administration matters as needed

Looking for:

• 3+ years estate planning experience
• Associate through of counsel welcomed
