In-Office

Are you someone whose talents are being underutilized? We value, recognize, and support our hardworking, dedicated team members. Do you want to work at a law firm where your work is varied in several areas of law and able to make a direct impact on clients? We are not your typical law firm!

It is an exciting period of growth in our firm where everyone is a critical part of the team, yet big enough to offer the security and benefits you want. You will have a personal connection with the owner and daily interaction with clients to see the fruits of your labor. Our firm makes a concentrated effort to have a great culture in the office. We have group outings each quarter and have office lunches to celebrate each person's birthday. These are a few examples of how we continue to foster a great atmosphere in the office.

We are seeking an Associate Attorney to become a part of our team. You will represent clients in legal proceedings both in New Jersey and Pennsylvania and will manage your own Elder Law and Estate Planning cases. A typical day consists of meeting with in-person consultations and then leading a team consisting of a paralegal and support staff regarding a client's legal needs.
