Law Partner

Good Life Legal is growing! Due to our growth, we need a partner-level attorney to help us serve our growing number of clients.

Here is the information you need to know about this opportunity:

• We run the business and operations, so you don’t have to.
• You can work about 95% remotely, or you can choose to come into the office.
• Low hourly billing requirements. Our focus is on moving cases forward, not the amount of time you spend grinding on a case.
• No sales. We handle that for you.
• No collecting. We collect in advance.
• Generous vacation time.
• If you don’t bring staff with you, we recruit your staff, and you make the final hiring decisions.

Excellent base pay + bonuses, with significant growth potential. We expect to have management positions for partners in the future. So, you can continue to advance if you desire to move into attorney management.

Remote work is a major benefit. This job gives you the flexibility to work from where you are much of the time. If you have a computer and a place to work, you can bring work with you.

Lots of support to help you be successful. We take care of:

• Advertising and Sales

• Technology and Software

• You must seek board certification in Family Law.
