The growing team at Graham.Law is looking for a full-time, Colorado Springs family law attorney with a Colorado bar license. Join one of the state’s premier family law firms, named one of the Best Law Firms in America by U.S. News & World Report, and work with multiple attorneys recognized by Best Lawyers and Colorado Super Lawyers.

APPLICANT

The ideal candidate is enthusiastic, intelligent, ethical, and provides clients with top-notch representation. We want a team player who problem-solves for our clients with professionalism rather than fighting for the sake of it. When our best efforts cannot resolve disputes, our clients need strong litigation skills and a confident courtroom presence.

We prefer an experienced family law attorney who can hit the ground running, but we will consider a newer attorney who has demonstrated an enthusiasm for family law, such as through law school clinical experience.

FIRM

We are a small collaborative firm. You will receive complete support from the best paralegals and staff in town, as well as from brainstorming sessions with your fellow attorneys. We will help you succeed at our firm! And though you will (hopefully) enjoy our company, we ensure a positive work-life balance with plenty of free time to spend with families, pets, hobbies, or simply in the Colorado mountains.

We have beautiful downtown Colorado Springs offices with mountain views just two blocks from the courthouse, but we are tech-savvy with all apps and client data in the cloud, so we are comfortable working in the office or at home and offer a hybrid office/home option.

BENEFITS

Excellent benefits include:

• Base salary $130-150K, depending upon experience
• Productivity bonus
• Low 110 hours/mo billables
• Full hourly credit for pro bono work and consults
• 401(k) with 4% company match
• Generous paid time off, with 13 paid holidays & flexible (unlimited within reason) PTO
• Health, life & disability insurance
• Bar dues & CLEs
• Hybrid home/office work

Please send a Statement of Interest and Resume to Carl Graham at cgraham@graham.law. Confidentiality assured.
