Job Description

We are seeking a fulltime Arizonalicensed litigator (2–6 years) who wants to build a longterm niche in probate, trust, and estate disputes. You bring solid civil litigation skills; we provide structured training, modern systems, and a stable docket. You do not need prior probate experience; if you bring solid civil litigation skills, we will teach you the probate and trust side.

Over time, we expect this role to evolve into a more non-contested probate caseload, but currently, you will have about 30% in an active litigation docket. This is a fulltime role with typical hours of 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., Monday–Friday, and can be performed fully remote from anywhere in Arizona, with optional hybrid time in the office, as needed. What We Offer Salary: $140,000 Plus performancebased bonuses tied to billable, collections, and results.

Reasonable, clearly defined billable expectations and support staff who actually help you hit them. Structured probate/trust litigation training, including forms and procedures. Modern tech stack (Clio Manage, WealthCounsel, and other bestinclass tools) so you can focus on lawyering, not paperchasing.

Responsibilities You Will: Manage a litigation docket involving will contests, trust disputes, breach of fiduciary duty, and related probate matters. Draft pleadings, motions, discovery, and trial briefs; take and defend depositions; appear at hearings, mediations, and trials. Work closely with clients navigating grief, complex family dynamics, and inheritance issues, translating the law into clear next steps.

Collaborate with a team that uses modern systems and workflows to keep cases moving efficiently (no “organized chaos” file rooms). What You’ll Work On Examples of matters you might handle: Will contests involving capacity, undue influence, or alleged fraud. Trust and estate disputes over trustee misconduct, accounting issues, or distribution fights.

Contested guardianship or conservatorship proceedings and removal or appointment issues. Advice and representation for personal representatives and trustees who are trying to "do it right" and avoid liability. Qualifications Who You Are Licensed to practice law in Arizona and in good standing. 2–6 years of civil litigation experience (state court motion practice, discovery, and hearings required; trial experience is a plus).

Strong writer and oral advocate who is comfortable in the courtroom and with direct client contact. Organized, proactive, and able to manage multiple cases and deadlines without dropping balls. Emotionally intelligent: you can manage conflict, handle upset clients, and keep conversations productive even when family tensions run high.

Prior probate, trust, or estate experience is a plus but not required—an interest in learning this niche and building a longterm practice in it is essential. #J-18808-Ljbffr
