This is a great job for a lawyer who is looking for a purpose! This role involves working with real people who are not in crisis mode but want to avoid a crisis when they pass away. We are a people practice, and our registered trademark is The Peace of Mind People. We have a great team of experienced attorneys and non-attorneys who are easy to work with and committed to our mission. We are somewhat faith-focused as well because we deal with life and death. This role is a non-equity track, and initially, it will involve drafting, back-office work, and then meetings with clients. We will train you in our particular methods which have proven successful over nearly 28 years. We do not handle litigation (too stressful) and we typically only charge flat fees (you don't have to keep track of your hours).
