Family Law Attorney - Sherwood Family Law
Sherwood Family Law is looking for a full-time family law attorney to join our growing law practice and adopt a full case load.
Our mission is to help our clients going through a divorce or custody dispute experience a better future. We know both how much happier our clients can be at the end of a divorce, and how rewarding it can be to guide them to that better future.
The right attorney for our firm will enjoy developing concise plans for our clients and guiding them step-by-step to the best results possible. We strive to help our client's make the right decisions, so that they can spend less time worrying about legal issues and spend more time focused on their own life and children.
Our Core Values:
Understanding and Empathy. We believe that the only way to help our clients is to walk a mile in their shoes. We deeply understand that a custody or divorce is the hardest thing our clients have ever had to experience.
Always Being Prepared. We don’t kick the can down the road and we prepare from the beginning with a solid plan. We live and die by our calendars.
Play By The Rules. We don't take short cuts and we believe the rules matter. Yes, it drives us a little bit crazy when an opposing party files their hearing memorandum the morning of trial.
No Sharp Elbows. We are a tight knit team and value compassion and hard work. We've all had an experience of working at a firm where yelling and abrasiveness was just another day in the office -- it isn't for us.
Find The Answers. We try our hardest to find the answers first. We love to learn and all strive to become the best. We also know that Google generally has the answer, and start there first.

A commitment to practicing family law and a love for this practice area.
