Description: Great family law attorneys deserve more than stale bagels and no support. Every family law firm says they care about families, but if you've ever been stuck cleaning up chaotic disclosures, redrafting sloppy motions, and explaining to the 'senior attorney' what Drahos calculations are (again), you know that not every family law firm cares about their attorneys. At Cantor Law Group, we understand that you didn't go to law school, rack up debt, and spend countless hours honing your trial skills to push paper at a firm where you're lucky if someone knows your name. You deserve high-stakes cases, a proactive and experienced support team, mentorship beyond "fingers crossed," and a career trajectory that doesn't end in someone else's shadow. We don't hire warm bodies; we hire the attorneys who practice law with legal acumen and grit. Cantor Law Group is Arizona's leading trial-focused family law firm. We handle complex cases that demand creativity, tenacity, and profound legal knowledge. Our attorneys collaborate daily, combining expertise and insight to deliver the best outcomes for our clients. We prioritize results over ego, mentorship over hierarchy, and excellence over shortcuts. Our cases challenge us, our team supports one another relentlessly, and our wins are celebrated loudly. At Cantor, your work will matter every single day. We want to read about you and why you want to join our firm. Please submit a cover letter. We will not contact you if we do not receive one. At Cantor Law Group, we offer: - Competitive Compensation and Benefits: Minimum starting base salary of $175,000/year, or more, depending on experience. Plus, objective quarterly and annual billable hours bonuses totaling $40,000 to $65,000 or more annually, in addition to personal referral bonuses. Benefits include: Time off: 30 paid days off annually. 10 holidays, 15 vacation days, and five personal/sick days. Loyalty vacation program: Earn one additional day off each year (for five years), then an additional five days at year 10, another five days at year 15, and so on. Medical Insurance: Cantor Law Group covers 50% of the individual insurance in your first year and 100% after, and covers 100% of your family's insurance at year five. Dental, Vision, and Life Insurance: Employees enjoy dental, vision, and life Insurance paid fully by Cantor Law Group. 401(k): Cantor Law Group generously matches 3.5% of employees' 401(k) contributions. Breakfast is catered for the firm every month, Family-style lunches are catered bi-weekly, and quarterly happy hours, firm outings, and other gatherings occur throughout the year. Families and children's attendance are always encouraged at Cantor Law Group. We care about our attorneys and their families. In recent years, our staff has enjoyed various in-suite Suns basketball games, Cardinals tickets, dinners at exclusive members' clubs, Michelin-Star outings, and banquets at The Biltmore. We understand that hard work deserves great rewards. - Hybrid Environment: Attorneys work full-time, Monday through Friday, from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Following their 90-day introductory period, attorneys have the option to work one day remotely each week. Many choose to, while others prefer the panoramic views of the Phoenix skyline from our penthouse suite and multiple floors in the prestigious Two Renaissance Tower Downtown, where employees enjoy endless snacks, drinks, employee lounges, and excellent restaurants in the building and within walking distance. - 40-and-out: In addition to one remote-working day, attorneys can "call out" (and be available by phone) each Friday if they have already met their billable hour requirement (40 per week). Meaning, if you bill 40 hours by Friday at 10 a.m., you can head home for the day. - Mentorship and CLEs: Cantor Law Group invests in conferences, mentorship, and strategy sessions to make you a better attorney, not a busier one. Our firm has an internal mentorship program to ensure progress and partnership flourish daily. Our attorneys meet monthly to strategize and discuss cases and recent developments in the law. Cantor Law Group also pays for attorneys' continued learning (CLE) requirements. Firm-sponsored conferences and year-round learning opportunities provide additional growth, mentorship, and collaboration. In recent years, our attorneys have attended multi-day conferences presented by the revered American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers in Las Vegas, Nashville, and Dallas, as well as various local conferences in Arizona. - A Team Worth Joining: Cantor Law Group was ranked in Ranking Arizona's Top Law Firm in Arizona (25 Lawyers or less) for all of Arizona! We are an AV-rated Family Law firm listed in Martindale-Hubbell's Bar Register of Preeminent Lawyers. With a team of 15+ attorneys, 5 Board-Certified Family Law Specialists, and over 150 years of combined experience, we are Arizona's preferred choice for family law representation. You'll learn and collaborate with the best; no more waiting for the partner who rolls into the office at noon and hasn't opened a rule book since '98. - Full Support Staff: We understand that drafting your own Rule 49 Disclosures is a punishment, not a career move. Paralegals, administrative staff, and support systems are already primed at Cantor Law Group, so you can focus on lawyering, not chasing paperwork. Tired of sharing your paralegal with other attorneys? At Cantor Law Group, you will have a paralegal assigned solely to you and your cases, so you can work as a team and have the immediate support and flexibility that family law cases require. Have a paralegal you prefer follow you to Cantor Law Group? Let us know and invite them to apply- we are always looking for new, deserving talent.

We use the Topgrading approach to ensure we hire only top performers. Step by step, we define what success looks like in the role, review your full career history and achievements, evaluate your skills and fit with our culture, check references with past colleagues, and make sure this role is the perfect match for your talents - all so you're joining a team of other high achievers.
