Family Law Attorney, Modern Law

Modern Law is Arizona’s largest family law firm, with 27 practitioners across offices in the Phoenix metro area, Tucson, and Yuma. We help people through divorce, custody disputes, and some of the hardest moments of their lives. We are looking for a family law attorney who wants to do that work well, and who wants to do it with a team.

What makes us different

Our attorneys don’t work in silos. We aren’t divided by practice group or office. Our lawyers talk strategy, compare results, and help each other every day. When you take on a hard case here, more than 20 other attorneys to think it through with. That collaboration is how we get better results for clients, and it’s how our attorneys grow faster than they would on their own.

We also care about the client experience beyond the courtroom. Family law clients are often scared, overwhelmed, and dealing with the worst version of their former partner. We want attorneys who treat clients with patience and respect, explain things in plain language, and help people make good decisions under pressure.
