Estate Planning and Elder Law Attorney

Brooklyn, NY

Miller and Miller Law Group

is growing and we are seeking a senior level Estate Planning and Elder Law Attorney who is ready to take ownership of our Brooklyn office. This is a leadership-driven position for an attorney who thrives on autonomy, clear communication, and guiding clients through important planning decisions with confidence and ease. You will have the flexibility of a hybrid schedule, the trust to manage the office day-to-day, and the opportunity to build a strong presence within the community as the primary attorney for this location.

About The Firm

Miller and Miller Law Group is an established estate planning and elder law firm known for clarity, compassion, and competency. We serve clients with thoughtful guidance, strong legal work, and a steady supportive approach to some of life's most meaningful transitions. Our culture values leadership, accountability, and communication. You will join a team that supports your growth, encourages initiative, and appreciates a high level of professionalism.

About The Role

You will manage client matters from beginning to end. This includes consultations, design meetings, strategy discussions, drafting, signing appointments, and follow-through. You will lead the Brooklyn office with the support of an intake coordinator currently onsite. The firm plans to add another paralegal once the right attorney is in place, giving you the resources you need to run the office effectively. You will handle estate planning, elder law, Medicaid planning, and ongoing estate and trust administration work. You will work closely with Dan who will continue to generate business, while you direct the client experience, drafting quality, workflow, and office operations.

What Success Looks Like

You communicate clearly and directly, helping clients understand their options. Your drafting work is accurate and timely. You manage the office confidently and maintain smooth daily operations.

Your presence enables the firm to grow the Brooklyn office, including expanding staff under your direction.

  • Clear communicator who avoids legalese.
  • Empathetic and calm when supporting clients.
  • Highly organized with strong writing and follow through.
  • Comfortable making decisions and managing a full caseload.
  • Strong understanding of estate planning, elder law, and Medicaid planning.
  • Tech comfortable and committed to client convenience.
  • Bonus Skills

  • Generous PTO and holiday time off.
  • Professional development support and CLE reimbursement.
  • Partnership track for high achievers.
  • Bonus opportunities tied to performance KPIs.
  • Why This Role Stands Out

  • Flexible hybrid schedule.
  • Opportunity to run and lead the Brooklyn office.
  • Support from firm leader on business development while you manage execution and client service.
  • Ability to build your own team structure, including a future paralegal.
  • Strong growth potential for an attorney seeking leadership and long-term stability.
