  • Working directly with clients in a highly client-forward role with significant exposure
  • Building toward inheriting work from a senior partner approaching retirement

Key Requirements

  • 5-7 years of trusts and estates experience with strong knowledge of gift, estate, and generation-skipping transfer tax regimes
  • Licensed to practice law in the State of Georgia (or ability to obtain)
  • Entrepreneurial mindset—comfortable in a client-facing role with direct client exposure
