Job description

Truce Law is looking for a fully remote family law attorney who lives in the state of Washington to join our legal team. If you're located near Olympia or would like to manage cases in Thurston County, that is a plus. Our law firm sets itself apart by marketing to clients who are looking for amicable and collaborative approaches to divorce, with contested divorce cases being the exception at our firm. If you want to spend more time with clients who are interested in settling their divorce peacefully through negotiation, Truce Law is the place for you. As a remote family law attorney at our firm, you’ll work with legal mentors who have decades of experience helping clients negotiate difficult divorce challenges, while also playing a leadership role on a team committed to helping families achieve faster results by resolving legal issues with less conflict and less litigation. Clients want to negotiate healthier co-parenting arrangements for their families and hire us because they don’t want to go to court. We are looking for a team player who loves creative problem-solving and who wants to help couples and families move forward using conflict resolution rather than an adversarial approach. Our team loves working for Truce Law because of our relaxed atmosphere and our focus on collaborative law, which means our attorneys aren’t regularly facing the kinds of higher conflict cases (and the associated stress involved). Our mentors are committed to nurturing your progress and development as a family lawyer within our firm. Finally, we have a diverse staff from around the world with quarterly events both online and in person to bring the team together. Apply with confidence; your application will be kept completely confidential.
