Working in our stunning new building, you’ll enjoy a balanced mix of in-office and remote work.
Why Join Us?
Unlike most firms, our attorneys are not required to solicit business. With our unique approach to marketing and sales supported by a dedicated team, our attorneys love the idea of “Lawyers getting to lawyer!” This allows you to focus on client work and meet the daily billable hours requirement of 6.5 hours without extending your workday. However, for those attorneys that do enjoy rainmaking, we offer financial incentives for driving new business.
At our firm, every employee matters. We are committed to your personal and professional growth and want to understand your needs to help you become a great team member. Our founder is dedicated to sharing her connections and resources to support your ambitions.

- Holiday Parties at Unique Locations (like a real castle or Denver Aquarium)
- Tickets to Galas and Sponsored Events
Our team members include roller derby captains, competitive bodybuilders, rugby players, mountain climbers, scuba divers, professional inline hockey players, and more. We thrive on connection and collaboration, making our hybrid work model enjoyable and fulfilling.
The Right Fit
To thrive with us, you need to be highly intelligent, compassionate, a strategic thinker, and ready to be aggressive in client care and protection—never towards your team. You should have experience with family law hearings, divorcing families, financial disclosures, and custody disputes.

What We Need from You
- Strategic Insight: Contribute to case strategy development. Courtroom Confidence: Navigate virtual and in-person courtrooms with competence.
- Client-Centric Approach: View cases as opportunities to help clients build new lives.
- Strong Character: Your personality, character, intelligence, and integrity matter as much as your skills and
- experience.
- Strong Communication Skills: You must have constructive communication
You may not be a strong fit for this role if you
- Are uncomfortable giving or receiving constructive feedback.
- Struggle to maintain professionalism in high-stress or emotionally charged situations.
- Prefer workplaces that tolerate gossip, negativity, or disrespectful communication.
- Have a difficulty managing confidential information or adhering to firm policies and deadlines.
