THE GIG Brava Family Law is growing, and we're looking for an attorney who's as sharp in a courtroom as they are steady with a client having the worst week of their life. Our clients are professionals in the middle of divorce — smart, high-stakes, often heartbroken. They don't need a shark. They need someone who will fight hard and help them close the book on the fairy-tale-that-wasn't so they can design their sequel on their own terms. If you can do both, keep reading. You'll work directly with our founder and the team — no bloated hierarchy, no partner-track politics. You'll carry real matters, argue your own motions, first-chair your own trials, and have a genuine hand in how this firm grows. We move fast, we use good tech, and we actually like each other. COMPENSATION $85,000 – $110,000 per year, plus discretionary performance-based bonuses. We reward WOW. IYKYK.
