    • Manage matters independently while knowing when to escalate issues as appropriate.

    What You Will Need

    • Juris Doctor (J.D.) from an accredited law school.
    • Active Georgia Bar license and membership in good standing.
    • 4–6+ years of civil litigation experience.
    • Demonstrated experience handling discovery, drafting pleadings, and appearing in court.
    • Stellar client-facing skills; ability to work with clients who require a high level of communication, service, and support.
    • Ability to manage multiple cases and priorities in a remote work environment.
    • Excellent legal writing, research, and verbal communication skills.
    • Strong analytical and organizational skills with attention to detail and deadlines.
    • Proficiency with Microsoft Office 365, case management systems, and online legal research tools (e.g., Westlaw, LexisNexis).
    • Professional, collaborative, and collegial demeanor.

    What Would Be Nice To Have

    • Experience with fiduciary litigation, including estates, trusts, wills, and/or guardianships.
    • Prior experience handling Georgia probate court matters.

    Target Hourly Pay Rate Range: $ $ Compensation decision will depend on a wide range of factors including but not limited to experience and training, and other job-related factors permitted by law.
