A thriving, client-centered estate planning practice in Murrieta is expanding its attorney team. It offers a rare opportunity for lawyers who love meaningful client interaction and a warm, fully supported environment. This practice is known for its technology-forward systems, polished client experience, and a culture built around “happy law” — no litigation, minimal stress, and a focus on creating positive outcomes for families.
This role is ideal for an estate planning attorney who genuinely enjoys face-to-face work. The practice’s attorneys spend the vast majority of their time meeting with clients, educating families, and crafting tailored plans while a robust support team handles most administrative and drafting tasks. Flexible schedules — including part-time and contract — make this an excellent fit for parents or those seeking a balanced professional lifestyle.
