Contract Probate Litigation Attorney
Attorney job in Brentwood, TN

The attorney will help the firm and its clients with estate litigation and estate administration cases. The firm is based in Brentwood, TN. This is an immediate opening.
*How does it work?*
As a contract attorney, you have flexibility in the number of hours you work each week. We'll have a discussion about how much you want to work and how many hours the firm needs. Based upon that, we'll come to an agreement on the target weekly hours. Then, we will work together to give you the appropriate number of assignments so you can meet that number. That said, since this is a contract position, we are not able to guarantee any minimum number of weekly hours.
If the attorney desires it, there may be an opportunity for the right candidate to join our team as a full-time attorney in the future, based upon the needs and growth of the firm.

We promote proactive contact with clients so that the client does not have to call our office for information, and we expect the attorney in this position to focus on that as well.
We want our attorneys to focus on being great attorneys and delivering excellent legal work and excellent service to our clients. Accordingly, this opportunity is ideal for an attorney that wants to focus on being the best attorney they can be, without having to worry about generating business, networking, or handling bookkeeping and accounting.

The work environment and requirements described below are representative of those necessary for an employee to successfully perform the essential functions of this role.
**The Physical Side of the Role:** This is an active, hands-on role. You can expect to be on your feet frequently, navigating active job sites with uneven terrain, stairs, ladders, and hoists. The work is physically demanding and requires a full range of motion, including bending, kneeling, and reaching. You'll need to be comfortable frequently lifting and carrying materials up to 25 pounds, and occasionally up to 50 pounds. This role requires the ability to communicate effectively, as well as visual acuity for reading plans and inspecting work. The role does include desk time in the office that may require prolonged periods of sitting for tasks like computer work, document review, and meetings.
**Your Work Environment:** You'll spend a significant amount of your time on active construction sites, which means being adaptable to all kinds of weather and moderate to loud noise levels, and comfortable in elevated or confined work areas with moving mechanical equipment and with the fast-paced nature of a project in progress. You will also spend time in a typical office setting with moderate noise levels. Your safety is our top priority, and you'll be expected to follow Clark Construction's safety policies and procedures, and all applicable laws, at all locations.
**Our High-Performing Culture:** This is a demanding, high-performance environment. We are looking for candidates who are energized by challenge, thrive under pressure, and are prepared to do what it takes to achieve exceptional results. Success in this role requires significant commitment, including flexibility to work extended hours, especially during critical project phases or client deadlines. Beyond regular working hours, there will be occasions where business needs require your attention, particularly for time-sensitive matters or emergencies. You are expected to monitor and respond to communications (phone calls, emails, text messages) as required to address these situations effectively. Your ability to manage these expectations and be responsive when critical issues arise is key to your success in this role and our collective success as a team.
**A Drug Free Workplace:** Clark promotes a drug free workplace. A pre-employment drug "fitness for duty" screening is required, and the company conducts random quarterly drug "fitness for duty" tests.
