Manage probate and trust administration matters
Appear in court and mediation, communicate directly with clients, and move cases forward
Work closely with experienced attorneys and support staff to ensure efficient case progression
You will not be micromanaged—but you will be supported and expected to take ownership of your cases.
What We’re Looking For:
Licensed Michigan attorney in good standing
1–3 years of hands‑on legal experience (family law, probate, or estate planning preferred)
Comfortable handling client matters with minimal supervision
