What are the responsibilities and job description for the Associate Attorney (Family Law) position at Lass Law, APLC?
Ready to practice family law with a team that genuinely loves what they do?
At Lass Law, we believe family law is about so much more than court hearings and legal documents. It's about helping people navigate some of the most emotional chapters of their lives with confidence, compassion, and a clear plan forward.
We're looking for an Associate Attorney with 1–4 years of family law experience who is intelligent, driven, collaborative, and—most importantly—has a genuine heart for this work.
If you're looking for a firm where your voice matters, your growth is encouraged, and your teammates genuinely support one another, we'd love to meet you.
Who You Are
You're someone who:
- Has 1–4 years of family law experience in California.
- Is licensed and in good standing with the California State Bar.
- Enjoys connecting with clients and building trust.
- Can confidently handle hearings, negotiations, discovery, and case management.
- Thrives in a collaborative team environment.
- Is organized, responsive, and proactive.
- Wants to continue developing into an exceptional family law attorney.
But here's what's even more important...
We can teach processes. We can mentor legal strategy. We can help you grow your courtroom skills.
What we can't teach is heart.
We're looking for someone who genuinely cares about people, treats clients with empathy and respect, and understands that family law isn't just about winning motions—it's about helping individuals and families move forward with dignity.
If you're the type of attorney who celebrates your clients' victories, loses sleep over making sure you've done everything possible for them, and believes kindness and professionalism can coexist with strong advocacy, you'll fit right in.
What You'll Be Doing
- Represent clients in all aspects of California family law matters.
- Appear at hearings, conferences, mediations, and settlement discussions.
- Draft pleadings, motions, declarations, and discovery.
- Conduct legal research and prepare case strategy.
- Communicate regularly with clients to provide guidance and support.
- Work closely with an experienced team of attorneys and legal professionals.
- Contribute to a positive, team-oriented office culture.
