Associate Attorney

About this position

AlerStallings law firm is looking for an experienced estate planning associate to support our clients in the Columbus area, with a home base in Dublin, Ohio. We know getting started in the legal industry can be challenging. We know about stressful billable hour requirements. We know the challenges of tackling new systems and a new niche area of the law. We know about the lack of culture, training, and team-oriented support missing from most law firms stuck in the 80s and 90s.

• Client Engagement: we deliver leads from preferred providers, seminars, radio, internet, and TV shows (The Expedition Retirement Show) – we expect you to engage these clients so that we can help them navigate life’s legal hurdles.
• Customer Service: Providing excellent customer service to our clients, particularly demonstrating the patience and communication excellence necessary to connect with our clientele.
• Transactional Excellence: the estate planning practice has numerous cases, calls and other responsibilities concurrently happening each day, so team members must be world-class at prioritization, organization, and delegation to succeed in this role.

What we provide

• Prospects – you do NOT need to bring, or even build your own book of business to be successful here, just your talent to engage and support the clients we provide.
• Existing Clients – we have thousands of existing clients that require our support.
• Competitive Base Salary ($125,000 - $150,000) based on experience, plus other Bonus incentives.
• Generous time off policy, Health Insurance, Dental Insurance, 401(k), Vision Insurance & Life Insurance.

Requirements

• Two (2) years+ of client-facing attorney experience.
• Admission to Ohio Bar.
• Admission to Michigan and Pennsylvania Bar (not a requirement, but nice-to-have).
• Estate Planning, Administration, and Elder Care law experience is preferred.
• GRIT – we built this company brick by brick on a blue-collar mindset where accountability, ownership, problem-solving, and toughness still matter in this workplace.
