This position is ideal for legal professionals with a passion for wealth preservation, trust administration, and estate structuring, who are looking to contribute meaningfully to a collaborative and growth-oriented practice.

Primary Responsibilities:

  • Provide strategic counsel to individuals, families, and fiduciaries on estate and wealth planning, ensuring optimal outcomes for asset protection, tax efficiency, and generational wealth transfer.

  • Draft and oversee legal instruments such as wills, trusts, powers of attorney, and healthcare directives.

  • Guide clients through estate and gift tax strategies, charitable planning, and business succession arrangements.

  • Collaborate closely with clients’ financial advisors, accountants, and other stakeholders to ensure a holistic and integrated approach to planning.

  • Support trust and estate administration, advising fiduciaries on probate procedures, tax filings, and asset distributions.

  • Cultivate and expand client relationships, leveraging an existing book of business to grow the firm’s estate planning practice.

Qualifications:

  • Juris Doctor (J.D.) degree from a recognized law school.

  • Admission to practice law in Massachusetts.

  • Between 2 to 6 years of experience focused on estate planning, trust administration, and related tax matters.

  • Demonstrated client portfolio (book of business) strongly preferred.

Key Skills & Competencies:

  • Proficient knowledge of federal and state estate, gift, and generation-skipping transfer tax laws.

  • Strong drafting abilities with attention to detail in creating complex estate planning documents.

  • Exceptional communication skills—both written and verbal—with the ability to explain intricate legal concepts to clients in a clear and approachable manner.

  • Adept at building and sustaining long-term client relationships, with a focus on understanding individual client needs and tailoring solutions accordingly.

  • Capacity to work independently, as well as collaborate within a team-oriented firm culture.

Compensation & Benefits:

  • Participation in a 401(k) retirement savings plan with firm contributions.

  • Access to health and dental insurance plans with employer support.

  • Disability coverage ensures financial stability and peace of mind.
