Estate Planning Paralegal
A bit about us
A long-standing, well-regarded Baltimore law firm with a small, senior trusts & estates team that handles sophisticated estate planning and administration work for high-net-worth individuals and families. This isn't a high-volume litigation shop — it's a tight group where careful, precise work matters more than throughput.
Why join us?
Why Join Us:
- Work directly with three partners and one associate on substantive estate planning matters — not buried reviewing thousands of pages of discovery
- Downtown Baltimore office, walkable to courts and counsel you'll work alongside regularly
- A firm that moves fast on hiring decisions — when they find the right fit, they don't drag out the process
- Genuine day-to-day flexibility around weather, family, and city disruptions, even though the role is in-office
Job Details
You'll support a trusts & estates practice handling estate planning, trust and estate administration, and related fiduciary matters. The work is detail-driven — drafting and reviewing estate planning documents, assisting with estate and trust administration, probate filings, and fiduciary accountings. This is not a document-review-volume role; it rewards careful, careful reader attention to a smaller set of complex documents.
Must-haves
- Prior paralegal experience in trusts & estates (junior level — some hands-on exposure to estate planning or administration required, not entry-level with zero T&E exposure)
- Strong attention to detail and writing precision
- Comfortable working in-office five days a week in downtown Baltimore
- No remote/hybrid candidates
