Lead With Experience. Practice With Purpose.

After years of practicing law, you know that successful family law requires more than knowing the law. It requires judgment, preparation, strategic thinking, resilience, and the ability to guide clients through difficult circumstances.

At Mandy Hancock Law PLLC, we are looking for a seasoned Senior Family Law Attorney who is ready to bring that experience to a growing practice where quality matters and professional judgment is valued.

This is an opportunity to take ownership of complex family law matters, serve as a trusted advocate for clients, mentor other members of the legal team, and contribute to the continued development of the firm.

If you want meaningful work, professional autonomy, strong team support, and the opportunity to have a real voice in the future of a family law practice, we would like to meet you.

Why Join Mandy Hancock Law PLLC?

We believe experienced attorneys should have the opportunity to practice excellent law without sacrificing professionalism, collaboration, or quality of life.

At Mandy Hancock Law, you will have:

This role also carries a leadership component. Your experience will help strengthen the attorneys and professionals around you, improve the way the firm serves clients, and contribute to a culture centered on integrity, excellence, and compassionate advocacy.
