Job description

Trusts & Estates Associate Attorney

Current & Future Opportunities | Confidential Career Conversations

You help clients plan for their futures. Are you giving your own career the same attention?

A successful private client practice depends on meaningful client relationships, sophisticated work, and the right professional environment.

Aligned Talent Acquisition welcomes conversations with Trusts & Estates / Private Client Associate Attorneys who may be open to exploring their options.

I work primarily with Am Law 50, 100, and 200 firms, but I also frequently partner with small and midsize firms, respected regional firms, and sophisticated boutiques across multiple markets.

Not currently practicing at an Am Law firm? I'd still love to hear from you! I welcome associates from firms of all sizes and value relevant experience, skills, and career goals.

Areas of Experience

• Estate planning and wealth transfer
• Trust and estate administration
• Estate and gift tax planning
• Business succession planning
• Fiduciary matters and high-net-worth clients

What Could Your Next Move Offer?

More sophisticated planning matters and clients

Greater independence and client responsibility

Stronger compensation and advancement potential

Better mentorship and professional support

Improved work-life balance and firm culture

You can enjoy your current practice and still be curious about what else is out there.

This is an opportunistic search, not an advertisement for one specific opening. However, I work with numerous law firms across multiple markets and may already have active opportunities that align with your experience and career goals.

Whether there's an immediate fit or we stay connected for the right opportunity down the road, I'd welcome the chance to learn more about your background, compensation expectations, and what matters most to you in your next move.

All conversations are confidential. Your resume and identifying information will never be shared with a firm without your permission.
