A bit about us:

We are a multi-disciplinary, full-service New York City firm with nearly fifty years in the market and offices across New York, Washington, D.C., and Florida. Our practice spans commercial litigation, real estate, government relations, corporate, and private client services — which means our Trusts & Estates attorneys work alongside lawyers who handle the underlying transactions and business deals that shape
their clients' wealth. The work is substantive, the clients are sophisticated, and the firm is stable

Why join us?
  • Cross-practice client access — our T&E attorneys regularly interface with clients who also have real

estate, corporate, and litigation needs, creating natural opportunities for broader relationship
development.
  • Real matter depth — you will draft and negotiate complex estate plans, administer trusts, advise high-net-worth individuals and families, and appear in Surrogate's Court and tax forums when disputes

arise.
  • Collegial, non-siloed environment — a mid-market firm means direct partner access, not years in a

queue, and your name goes on the work.
  • Geographic footprint — NYC headquarters with multi-office reach; NYC-caliber work without the

lockstep churn of a large firm.

Job Details

We are seeking a mid-level associate to join our Trusts & Estates group in New York City. The role involves drafting wills, revocable and irrevocable trusts, powers of attorney, and healthcare directives; advising on gift, estate, and generation-skipping tax strategies; assisting with estate and trust administration; representing clients in Surrogate's Court proceedings; and coordinating with other practice groups on planning matters tied to real estate and business transactions.

  • 3-6 years of focused trusts and estates experience at a law firm (required)
  • New York Bar admission (required)
  • Hands-on drafting experience: wills, trusts, powers of attorney, and estate administration
  • Working knowledge of federal and New York estate, gift, and income tax law
  • J.D. from an accredited law school; LL.M. in Taxation or Estate Planning is a plus
  • Must be able to work onsite in New York City
