Our Private Clients Practice Group is seeking to hire a non-partner track department attorney with at least 4 to 6 years of experience to join our growing estate administration team. The ideal candidate must have substantive experience in trust and estate administration, including managing probate court filings in connection with the probate of estates and settlement of trusts, preparation of state and federal estate tax returns, and preparation of estate and trust accountings. Experience with the preparation of gift tax returns is a plus, as is estate planning for high-net-worth clients. An L.L.M. degree in taxation is a plus, but a solid foundation in gift, estate and income tax planning is a necessity.
