• This is a full-time, on-site role for an Estate Planning and Elder Law Attorney at LawyerLisa, LLC, located in Bluffton, SC. Attorney will work closely with clients to develop comprehensive estate plans, strategize long term care options, and guide families through the probate process. This is a client-facing position with the team handling back-end drafting.

A note from Lisa:
Most estate planning attorneys didn’t choose this field to feel like they’re on a production line.
But somewhere along the way, for a lot of people, it starts to look like:
• back-to-back files with lots of follow-up
• constant drafting
• little time to actually connect with clients, and a schedule that quietly follows you home
If you’ve been practicing for a while, you probably know exactly what that feels like.
Our Bluffton, SC office is growing, and we’re adding a client-focused estate planning & elder law attorney (5+ years experience).
This role is intentionally structured for someone who:
• enjoys sitting across from clients and guiding decisions
• wants to build real, ongoing relationship; not just close matters
• is ready to spend less time in documents and more time in conversations designing the right path forward
• appreciates being part of a team that happily shares the load
You would be:
• leading consultations (12-15 per week on a set schedule)
• advising on trust-based planning strategies and long term care options
• helping guide families through probate administration when needed
• staying connected with clients as part of a long-term relationship model
And importantly, your work is supported by systems and team members who handle much of the backend execution.
A few things attorneys tend to notice quickly about this role:
• The pace is intentional. You can focus without feeling constantly rushed
• Your time outside the office is actually your own
• You’re not doing this alone. There’s real team support with an incredible administrative and paralegal team
• Your experience in working with clients is recognized and valued
We’re expanding in Bluffton, SC and serve a growing, engaged community. We’re also active locally, so if you enjoy being out in the community (not just behind a desk), that’s a plus.
South Carolina bar license and notary public required. Value-based compensation with a strong salary and benefits.
Starting salary - $80,000.00 per year
If you’ve ever thought, “there has to be a better way to practice than this,” don’t wait until this opportunity closes.
