    Litigation attorney job in Marietta, GA

    Stearns-Montgomery and Proctor, a family law firm, representing clients in all areas of family law, with offices in Marietta, Atlanta, Buckhead, Gainesville, Fayetteville, Canton Alpharetta, and Savannah. We are seeking an experienced assertive attorney, eager to handle the multi-faceted areas of complex divorce and child custody cases within the firm, achieving maximum results, excellent customer service and account retention. For decades Stearns-Montgomery & Proctor has been driven to create a thriving environment for family law attorneys. We cater to lawyers who want to work independently while having the administrative, marketing, and regulatory burdens lifted. While we are fast paced, our lawyers can focus on delivering legal expertise while working in an environment with a culture that fosters genuine collegiality and close collaboration between all its lawyers. We have had extraordinary success working predominantly online in dispersed locations. Our model works particularly well for lawyers with a strong client following, allowing them to take home significantly more of their fee income - a marked contrast to the traditional model, where the lawyer is paid a salary with the hope of a year-end bonus. For those attorneys newer to the field, we provide leads and the guidance/training to turn those leads into retainers and growing caseloads. We maintain meaningful office hubs in critical metro areas to provide collaborative workspace and meeting rooms, access to cloud-based systems, office facilities, skilled marketing and business development resources, high-quality administration, secretarial and paralegal support, and all the back-office support services needed. If you are highly self-motivated and dedicated to providing high levels of client service, please apply!
