Our client is a midsized firm with a great reputation in Los Angeles. They are seeking an Associate with 5-9 years of experience with a strong interest in practicing in the Private Client Services industry.

Their PCS practice offers an opportunity to gain expertise in and advise on complex domestic and international tax, wealth transfer, and succession structures for high net worth and ultra-high net worth individuals and families while developing personal, often multi-generational relationships with clients and their trusted advisors.

Their PCS attorneys counsel our clients on core estate planning, privacy structures, advanced gift, estate, and generation-skipping transfer tax planning, California property tax planning, residency planning for transitory clients, whether the move is occurring domestically within the U.S. or inbound or outbound international migration, foreign trusts with U.S. assets or U.S. beneficiaries, pre- and post-liquidity event planning, post death trust and probate administration, fiduciary income tax planning, trust and estate contention, fiduciary and beneficiary litigation, charitable planning, grant making, and administration of not-for-profit organizations.

The nature of the PCS practice involves frequent and direct client and client-advisor interaction from the earliest stages of practice, and requires daily engagement with other members of the PCS team, as well as frequent collaboration with other practice areas supported by our full service firm, including but not limited to our corporate, income tax, employment law, real estate, entertainment, and environmental practices.

Attorneys in the PCS group are industry-recognized thought leaders and our group actively encourages participation from all attorneys in the practice. Their members are routinely published in and recognized by leading tax and non-tax publications, and consistently speak at and attend industry conferences worldwide, including, but not limited to, in Los Angeles, New York, Chicago, Miami, Hawaii, Mexico, London, Paris, and Rome. Their group provides continual support for the development of its attorneys in the technical areas of the practice, industry recognition, and professional development.

This role is a full-time in-office (non-remote, non-hybrid) position. Candidates must be licensed to practice in the State of California. A demonstrated interest in technical tax practice through coursework, prior experience, or an LL.M. program is encouraged but not required.

Salary Range: $265,000 – $320,000 per year
