The Problem With Most Family Law Jobs | Phoenix & Tucson | Hybrid

It is not the work. The work is meaningful, and you already know that, or you would not be reading this.

It is the intake. It is the client who should have been turned away, handed to you anyway, who calls six times a day and will not pay the bill. It is being handed a file three weeks before a hearing with no strategy and no support. It is finding out at 6:00 PM that something was never calendared.

We built this firm to not work that way.

Our Values

• Excellence: We are the best. If we are not, we figure out how to get there without compromising our principles.

• Authenticity: We say what we mean and mean what we say. We are respectful but direct, and we practice radical candor.

• Respect: We treat each other the way we require to be treated, and we expect the same from those we serve.

We are a team, not a family. Families tolerate things no workplace should.

• Conduct legal research and build sound case strategy

• Counsel clients honestly through decisions that are emotionally difficult and legally consequential

Hybrid. Court appearances, client meetings, supervision, and team collaboration happen onsite in Tucson. Trial prep, drafting, and case preparation can be done remotely when it makes sense. A supervisory seat requires meaningful onsite presence; your team cannot learn from someone they never see.
