You'll support a trusts & estates practice handling estate planning, trust and estate administration, and related fiduciary matters. The work is detail-driven — drafting and reviewing estate planning documents, assisting with estate and trust administration, probate filings, and fiduciary accountings. This is not a document-review-volume role; it rewards careful, careful reader attention to a smaller set of complex documents.
Must-haves: prior paralegal experience in trusts & estates (junior level — some hands-on exposure to estate planning or administration required, not entry-level with zero T&E exposure); strong attention to detail and writing precision; comfortable working in-office five days a week in downtown Baltimore; no remote/hybrid candidates.
Comp/location/work-mode: $65,000–$75,000; downtown Baltimore; full-time, in-office.
