Job Description
*Family Law Associate*
_Join a Collaborative, Client-Focused Firm Committed to Excellence and Professional Growth_
*About Beresford Booth and Our Family Law Practice*
Beresford Booth is a full-service law firm based in Edmonds and Bothell, serving clients throughout the Pacific Northwest. For more than 75 years, we have provided trusted legal counsel with a commitment to excellence, collaboration, and community.
Our *Family Law Group* represents clients in all areas of family law, including divorce, parenting and custody matters, property division, and complex financial and business-related issues. We pride ourselves on delivering practical, creative, compassionate advocacy that empowers clients during life’s most challenging moments.
We are seeking an *Associate Attorney with 3+ years of family law experience* to join our growing team.
*Why This Opportunity Stands Out*
At Beresford Booth, we use sound, independent judgement to help our clients address their most important legal needs and solve their most complex challenges. We believe that diverse perspectives strengthen our practice and enrich the service we provide to clients. We are proud to foster an environment where attorneys can thrive — both professionally and personally.
Our attorneys are empowered with client-facing roles, entrusted with meaningful responsibility, and supported in shaping and advancing their careers at every stage. At the same time, we cultivate a family-first culture—one where personal lives are respected, and families grow alongside the firm.
This position offers the opportunity to work alongside a team of accomplished family law practitioners who value mentorship, collaboration, and integrity. Our family law attorneys and staff bring more than 115 years of shared legal experience to the table— we’ve got your back. Our team members consistently support each other by strategizing and developing creative solutions to solve our client’s complex legal challenges.
*Life at Beresford Booth*
Beresford Booth offers the resources of a full-service firm with the collegiality and flexibility of a boutique environment.
We are passionately committed to your development and growth. We invest in your long-term success through our in-house mentorship program and opportunities for continuous learning. Our firm is committed to developing and deepening relationships with clients and business partners. We provide immediate opportunities for leadership and development of your legal career. Our attorneys lead with confidence, grow with support, and thrive in a family-first environment that values both professional success, community engagement, and personal well-being.
*For This Position, We Offer:*
· Salary ranging from $130,000 - $180,000; however, the base salary offered to an eligible candidate may vary based on skills and overall experience. This information is provided per Washington’s Equal Pay and Opportunities Act.
* Uncapped annual performance-based bonus opportunities
* Flexible work arrangements, including up to 50% hybrid/remote work (after first 90 days), and a supportive culture of work-life balance
* 401(k) with firm contribution
* Generous paid time off and firm holidays
* Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage
* Up to 36 hours of billable credit hours for pro bono activities
We are proud to be part of a professional community that values the full integration, well-being, and the advancement of women in the legal profession.
*Qualifications:*
We’re looking for an attorney who is both a strong advocate, a compassionate counselor, and a dedicated member of the family law team. Key qualifications include:
