Our growing law firm is seeking to add a motivated, team-oriented Estate Planning Lawyer to make an immediate impact on day 1.

We are seeking an experienced Estate Planning Lawyer with at least 3 years of progressive experience in estate planning and probate. This lawyer must be capable of managing client matters with autonomy and minimal oversight but is comfortable working within an existing, proven team-based practice model.  We do not expect this lawyer to do marketing or business development - we want a hard-working, technical expert for our growing team .

As a family-focused firm with a flexible, hybrid work environment, Sheryll Law P.C. offers a competitive salary and compensation package. We are a team-oriented firm with a focus on providing client-centered, relationship-driven estate planning services to individuals, families, and business owners in the Suffolk County area, the Nassau County area, and throughout the state of New York. We are growth-minded and focused on expanding throughout the state in the near future.

We put the client experience and relationship with our firm first, above all else, and we're looking for an attorney who enjoys:

The ideal candidate will be a stellar ambassador for the firm in all client interactions.

We are seeking a candidate with progressive experience, not someone who has had a year of experience seven times over. We expect candidates to be able to completely describe the intention and purpose of different complex planning strategies, including tax-based estate planning techniques. The ideal candidate thinks outside the box and can diagnose any poorly drafted or implemented estate plan without issue, and recommend opportunities to remedy the issues.

The ideal candidate will be driven to exceed expectations and contribute to the growth of the firm in a meaningful way. Compensation for the right candidate will include:

• Competitive Salary
• PTO
• 401(k) with generous employer match
• Health insurance (employee premium paid 100%)
• Long-term and short-term disability (employee premium paid 100%)

$90,000 - $151,000 yearly

• Being a direct point of contact for clients on the creation and implementation of their respective estate planning strategy in a way that will make the client want to leave a 5-star Google Review with your name in it
• Advising clients about their estate planning options, the pros, and cons of each strategy, and providing a fiduciary recommendation from a "down-to-earth" perspective that clients will understand and appreciate
• Being a mentor to less-experienced team members and an advocate for team member growth and education
