Job Description

We’re Hiring: Family Law Associate Attorney Harper&McCoy, A.P.C.– Riverside, CA

Do You Want Real Courtroom Experience—Not Just Paperwork?

Harper&McCoy is growing, and we’re looking for a Family Law Associate Attorney who’s ready to step in, take ownership, and make a real impact.

This is not a sit-back-and-observe role. This is for someone who wants to handle cases, appear in court, and advocate for clients from day one.

What You’ll Be Doing - Handling family law cases from start to finish - Appearing in court on RFOs, hearings, and conferences - Drafting motions, pleadings, and discovery - Advising clients through custody, support, and property issues - Negotiating settlements and litigating when needed - Managingyour own caseload

The Work Matters You’ll be representing first responders and their families—clients dealing with real-life, high-stakes situations.

This isn’t volume for the sake of volume. This is strategic, meaningful family law work where your advocacy matters.

Who We’re Looking For - Licensed California attorney (or newly admitted) - Strong writing and analytical skills - Comfortable in court or eager to get there quickly - Organized, responsive, and able to manage deadlines - A self-starter who takes ownership of their cases Preference If You Have- Family law experience - Litigation experience - Confidence handling hearings independently

Why This Role Stands Out - Real courtroom experience early and often - Direct client interaction - Opportunity to grow quickly as a family law attorney - Supportive, team-oriented environment - A firm that values initiative, accountability, and results

Location Riverside, CA (with occasional appearances in surrounding counties)

If You’re Looking For - More courtroom time - More responsibility - Real growth in family law

This is your opportunity.
