Senior Attorney

Fait and DiLima Family Law, LLC • Rockville, MD, US

Description

We Are Hiring: Senior Attorney — Family Law

Rockville, MD · Hybrid · Full-Time

We built this firm on a simple conviction: that when people are overwhelmed by the most complex and consequential situations of their lives, they deserve an attorney who can make sense of it completely, honestly, and in a way that actually helps them move forward. And it is the foundation of everything we look for in the people who join us.

We are a well-established and steadily growing family law firm in Rockville, Maryland. After 30 years in practice, we are not hiring because we need bodies. We are hiring because we have found a better way to do this work with depth, with precision, and with people who are genuinely committed to getting it right, and we want to keep building on it.

Why Join Us

• Our Why is real, not a tagline. We exist to make sense of complex situations and help people move forward. Every attorney here does that work with purpose.

• We go deep. Mastery is how we bring our Why to life, and we invest in the expertise of everyone on this team through mentorship, training, and ongoing development.

• We deliver Trust. Clients count on us to be accurate, thorough, and completely reliable. So does our team. That standard applies in every direction.

• Hybrid schedule (2 days a week) with genuine flexibility, and we mean it.

• Clear path to growth.

• A firm culture that is serious about the work and not serious about itself. We find moments of humor, lightness, and real human connection in the middle of difficult cases because that is part of how we do this well.

What We Offer

• Competitive salary commensurate with experience.

• Comprehensive and competitive benefits: health, dental, vision, 401(k), PTO, paid holidays, and more.

• Hybrid schedule with real remote flexibility.

• Ongoing professional development.

• A team that supports each other and shows up for clients and for each other.

• Modern tools and systems that let you do your best work efficiently.

If you are looking for a firm where the work is meaningful, the people are real, and the standard is high, we would love to hear from you.

• Manage family law cases from start to finish: divorce, custody, child support, protective orders, and more.

• Settlement-focused and litigation-ready.

• Build thorough case strategy grounded in complete legal and factual analysis.

• Counsel clients with clarity and honesty.

• Collaborate with a supportive, experienced team.

What You Will Do

• Handle a full caseload of family law matters from start to finish: divorce, custody, child support, protective orders, and more.

• Build complete, accurate legal strategies, going deep into the facts of every matter rather than accepting surface-level presentations.

• Counsel clients clearly and honestly, even when the truth is difficult.

• Collaborate with a team that takes the work seriously and each other equally.

• Licensed in Maryland with 7+ years of practice in Family Law.

• Litigation experience is a must.

• DC license is a plus.

• Confident in the courtroom. Precise with the pen. Clear with clients.

• The kind of attorney who goes further than required and can be counted on completely.

• Organized, emotionally intelligent, and level-headed under pressure.

• Bonus: you appreciate both legal precision and a well-timed joke.

What We Are Looking For

• 7+ years practicing as an attorney practicing in Family Law.

• Licensed to practice law in Maryland (DC a plus).

• Excellent writing, communication, and courtroom skills.

• Litigation-ready.

• The ability to take in complex, emotionally charged situations and make sense of them for the client and for yourself.

• Deep professional instincts: you go further than required, you verify rather than assume, and you are the kind of attorney people can count on completely.

• Emotionally intelligent, organized, and level-headed under pressure.

• A sense of humor. Lightness is not optional here; it is part of how we stay human in a serious profession.
