Join the Sound Law Team

Work That Matters. A Team That Invests in You.

Sound Law Group is a boutique family law firm built on the belief that exceptional legal work requires both deep expertise and genuine connection. We handle some of the most consequential matters in our clients’ lives — divorce, custody, support, property division, and domestic violence — and we do it with tenacity, integrity, and care. We are a small firm by design. At Sound Law Group, exceptional legal work and a fulfilling life outside the office aren’t in conflict — they go hand in hand. If that’s the kind of practice you’ve been looking for, we’d like to hear from you.

What We Look For

We are interested in attorneys who bring:

• Substantive family law experience, or a strong litigation background with genuine interest in building a family law practice.
• Courtroom confidence — we take pride in being prepared and effective before the bench.
• Emotional intelligence — the ability to hold space for clients in crisis while keeping the legal strategy clear-eyed and focused.
• A collaborative spirit — we work closely as a team and with our clients’ other advisors.
• Intellectual curiosity — complex financial issues, multi-jurisdictional matters, and high-conflict custody cases require attorneys who dig in and think carefully.

We welcome inquiries from experienced associates, senior associates, and attorneys interested in a partnership track. We also periodically have openings for paralegals and legal support professionals.

What We Offer

• Remote work — we have no office requirement; live and work wherever suits you, with occasional in-person court appearances in the Bay Area.
• Mentorship and professional development from partners with decades of Bay Area family law experience.
• Substantive work from day one — no document review silos or dead-end assignments.
• Competitive compensation commensurate with experience.
• A collegial, respectful culture — we support each other and communicate directly in collaboration.
• A platform for growth — attorneys who demonstrate excellent judgment and strong client relationships have a path to leadership here.
