Job description

TDE Family Law & Divorce Attorneys is a rapidly growing family and criminal law firm in downtown Atlanta. Our focus is on helping good families in bad situations transition to a better tomorrow. We are looking for an experienced Managing Attorney to join our team as we continue to grow. Interviews will start in December, and the start date is anticipated in January-February 2027.

Our perfect candidate has extensive experience as a Managing Attorney and is still enthusiastic about spending a portion of their time representing clients. In addition to that, our ideal applicant is also excited about leading a production team representing clients with complicated issues involving significant assets, contentious custody disputes, and other highly contested issues requiring not only legal excellence, but also a focus on firm culture, production team development, and retention of the team.

Our ideal candidate is an excellent communicator who also has experience strategically monitoring the matters of other attorneys and their teams and providing oversight, feedback, and support to ensure clients receive excellent service while keeping an eye on the bottom line of the firm. We are looking for someone equally as passionate about BEING a lawyer as they are about DEVELOPING the skills and talents of colleagues. Understanding of adult learning styles, mentoring, and coaching is essential for this role.
