    Do you want to be part of an amazing movement in Family Law located in Pierce County, Tacoma WA? If by the time you reach the end of this inquiry and are inspired to be a part of the change we want to see, we invite you to submit your interest. Parents and their children deserve a legal team that can guide them, educate them and protect them in all that they will face during their family law case.  We are a boutique Family Law Firm, on a mission to change how families navigate their new normal.   We are known for helping our clients come out of an extremely difficult and emotional process feeling better and in a superior position than when they walked through our door. Is it strenuous? Yes. Is it challenging? Yes. However, with the right legal team by their side, it can be healing, successful and should lead them to their brighter future. Our team never loses sight that this is THEIR life... their children, their home, their finances. We are on track for continued innovative growth and we desire an experienced Family Law Attorney to join us to work directly with the owner, fellow attorneys, and our legal and administrative support, as a united team, in a single effort: helping our clients better their lives and creating an inspiring, uplifting work environment. Our focus and mission are to be the industry thought-leaders and difference-makers in our local courts and community. All too often we see attorneys let their ego get in the way of settling a case, we see clients hire lawyers who do not have proper support staff, and we see legal professionals fail to give their clients the appropriate resources needed to set them up for success both during litigation and after divorce. That is not the case at Bliss Law Group. We have dedicated our entire practice to the belief that the client always comes first, that there is always a “bigger picture” to be kept in mind, and that honesty and candor should always be the driving force of conversations. We provide the necessary tools and support to our team which, in turn, guarantees that the clients always have what they need too.  Our Firm is team-oriented. We provide ample support and direction to our employees with a focus on upward mobility. To put it frankly, we value our team as much as we value our clients, and we REALLY value our clients. Legal experience and legal acumen are required, but your personality, character, intelligence and integrity will be paramount considerations. We pride ourselves in being family-focused, compassionate and dedicated to our team and our community. Our new attorney will work hard, but also realize that personal lives deserve attention. We are believers in fulfilling the needs of our clients, to the best of our abilities, while also fulfilling the needs of our families and personal lives. This is a full-time career where you are expected to manage a full caseload and legal team.  We offer competitive compensation packages including multiple bonus opportunities, team retreats, team rewards, health insurance stipend, 401K, malpractice insurance, paid bar dues, paid time off, paid holidays, paid training and professional expenses.  There are also opportunities for continued personal and professional development. At Bliss Law Group, there is great reward for stellar work! WE ARE SEEKING AN EXPERIENCED FAMILY LAW ATTORNEY.
