On behalf of a premier, growth-oriented legal boutique in the Piedmont Triad, we are conducting a confidential search for an experienced attorney to join their wealth preservation team. This firm has intentionally moved away from high-volume practice models in favor of a systems-driven, high-touch approach for affluent families and business owners.

Case Leadership: Analyze unique financial and familial situations to strategize effective courses of action for retirement and charitable giving.

Experience: 5+ years of dedicated practice in Estate Planning and Probate. (Estate Administration expertise is a valued plus).

Technical Aptitude: Proficiency with modern estate drafting and case management platforms.

Education: Juris Doctor (J.D.) required. An LL.M. in Taxation or status as a Board Certified Specialist is highly preferred and will be reflected in the compensation ceiling.
