A bit about us:

Our client is a highly respected Boston-based litigation and business law firm with a long-standing reputation for delivering sophisticated legal counsel to closely held businesses, developers, financial institutions, and high-net-worth individuals. The firm offers attorneys the opportunity to work on complex, high-stakes matters while maintaining a collaborative, entrepreneurial environment that emphasizes direct client interaction and meaningful responsibility.

Unlike larger institutional firms, attorneys are given substantial hands-on experience, close mentorship from experienced partners, and the ability to play a visible role in client strategy and case management. The firm has built a strong presence in the Boston market through its deep client relationships, collegial culture, and commitment to professional growth, making it an attractive platform for attorneys seeking sophisticated work in a more personalized setting.


Why join us?

Our Trusts & Estates practice advises high‑net‑worth individuals and families on sophisticated estate planning, trust administration, and wealth transfer strategies. The team combines deep expertise with a collaborative, client‑focused approach, delivering tailored solutions that preserve and protect multigenerational wealth.

Join a collaborative, high-net-worth trusts and estates practice at a boutique law firm in downtown where your expertise is valued and your contributions directly support a sophisticated client base. You’ll assist multiple attorneys in managing complex estate planning, trust administration, and wealth transfer matters.

We offer a flexible schedule, excellent work-life balance, and a competitive compensation package, including:

** 401K employee match 50% **

** 100% paid health and dental coverage, and deductible **

Strong compensation and yearly bonus

Profit Sharing

If you excel in a detail-oriented, team-focused environment and are eager to advance your career supporting high-net-worth clients, this is the ideal opportunity.
