Description:

Experienced Colorado Family Law Attorney | Full-Time | Hybrid or Remote | $125,000–$300,000

Hinds & Hinds Family Law, P.C. is seeking an experienced Colorado family law attorney who values professional autonomy, sophisticated legal work, and a sustainable career.

With roots going back to 1968, Hinds & Hinds is a well-established Colorado family law firm with a longstanding reputation for knowledgeable, individualized representation. Our attorneys handle matters ranging from negotiated and uncontested divorces to high-conflict parenting disputes, complex financial cases, and substantial property divisions.

We are committed to providing thoughtful, solution-oriented representation that recognizes the effect family disputes can have on children. When resolution is possible, we work to achieve it strategically and efficiently. When litigation becomes necessary, we are prepared to advocate vigorously for our clients.

A Different Kind of Family Law Practice

Hinds & Hinds does not impose a predetermined monthly billable-hour requirement on our attorneys.

We believe experienced attorneys can provide exceptional representation without sacrificing their families, health, or lives outside the office. Our attorneys are trusted to manage their caseloads, exercise independent professional judgment, and maintain appropriate control over their schedules.

We also offer a flexible vacation policy: attorneys are encouraged to take time away when they need it, subject to responsible management of client needs, deadlines, and professional obligations.

This is an opportunity to practice family law at a high level while maintaining greater balance and autonomy than the traditional law-firm model typically allows.

An Opportunity for an Established Attorney

This position may be particularly attractive to an experienced solo practitioner or established family law attorney who enjoys managing cases independently but would benefit from the resources, infrastructure, and professional support of a recognized firm.

At Hinds & Hinds, attorneys can focus on practicing law while the firm supports many of the administrative responsibilities that often consume a solo practitioner's time, including:

Billing and accounting
Human resources and benefits administration
Marketing and business development
Technology and practice-management systems
Paralegal and administrative support
Office operations and general firm administration

Our attorneys also benefit from working alongside experienced colleagues who are available for strategic consultation, collaboration, and additional support in complex matters.

An established referral network or portable caseload is welcomed, although our primary objective is to find the right attorney and long-term professional fit.

Responsibilities:
The attorney will independently manage a Colorado family law caseload, with responsibilities that include:

Advising clients regarding divorce, allocation of parental responsibilities, child support, maintenance, property division, and post-decree matters
Developing practical legal strategies tailored to each client's circumstances, needs, and objectives
Managing matters from initial consultation through final resolution
Drafting and reviewing pleadings, motions, agreements, disclosures, discovery, and correspondence
Conducting legal research and analysis
Negotiating with opposing counsel and self-represented parties
Representing clients in mediation, conferences, evidentiary hearings, and trials
Preparing witnesses, exhibits, and legal arguments for contested proceedings
Maintaining clear, timely, and candid communication with clients
Managing deadlines, client expectations, case strategy, and retainer considerations
Collaborating effectively with the firm's attorneys, paralegals, and administrative staff
Representing the firm professionally within the Colorado legal community

Qualifications:
Qualified candidates will have:

A minimum of five years of substantive Colorado family law experience
An active Colorado law license in good standing
The ability to independently manage a family law caseload
Strong knowledge of Colorado domestic-relations law, procedure, and practice
Meaningful experience in negotiation, mediation, evidentiary hearings, and trial
Excellent legal research, writing, and analytical abilities
Sound professional judgment and a solution-oriented approach
The ability to advocate effectively when judicial intervention or litigation is necessary
Excellent written and verbal communication skills
Strong organizational and case-management abilities
A collaborative and client-centered approach
Comfort working with contemporary legal technology and digital case-management systems
An established professional reputation and involvement in the Colorado legal community
Experience with trusts and estates is a plus but is not required.

Compensation and Benefits:
The anticipated annual compensation range for this position is $125,000 to $300,000. Compensation within this range will depend upon the attorney's experience, qualifications, caseload, portable business, and agreed-upon compensation structure.
