    Trust and Estate Planning Attorney Why Work With Us? We are a boutique, consultative tax and estate planning law firm looking to grow our Estate Planning Team. This is a great opportunity for an experienced estate planning attorney who is conscientious, resourceful, and has a strong desire to work through complex estate planning matters for clients. While we believe in continued education and development, this is not a learn-as-you-go position. We are seeking an attorney who has experience and knowledge of estate planning, and who wants to continue to learn and grow as a counselor to clients. If you are a top performer and want to work with a group of tight-knit, elite, like-minded professionals, please read on. This is a great opportunity for you if you lean toward leadership and client development. Our firm has a reputation for delivering top-notch professional services with a white-glove client experience. With the main office in Bainbridge Island, Washington, and a branch in Kirkland, Washington, Bainbridge residents have consistently voted our founding and managing attorney at the top of the annual Best of Bainbridge poll as one of the top three CPAs and attorneys in the community. Clients think of us first when they need counsel and appreciate our genuine care for their interests and our expertise in a variety of areas. While we have our sights set on rapid growth, we are still mindful to appreciate the contribution of every team member. We are very proud of, and protective of, the team culture we have built. Please apply if you will pitch in and make a pot of coffee, pitch in to help a colleague meet a deadline, have a great sense of humor, and don't enjoy drama. You will be happy here!! The Opportunity This is a great opportunity for someone who wants to join a growing business that is expanding its current base of services and has plans to develop other areas of professional service that will help clients and be interesting for everyone on our Team.

Clients are individuals and business owners with sophisticated tax, estate, and business planning and compliance needs. Our team comes from a variety of backgrounds with diverse personal interests. While our client work is important and we hold ourselves to high service standards, our family and outside interests and activities are just as valuable.
