I’m hiring a Family Law Associate to join me at Willing Law Professional Corporation.

Growing my firm means finding someone who shares our commitment to clear advice, strong advocacy, and helping clients find a path forward during difficult transitions.

I’m looking for a lawyer with 2–4 years of Ontario family law experience who takes ownership of their files, communicates thoughtfully with clients, and enjoys working collaboratively.

You’ll manage matters involving parenting, support, property division, divorce, and domestic contracts, with clerking and administrative support and direct access to me to discuss strategy and challenging issues.

The opportunity:

• Full-time position with fully remote or hybrid options

• Office based in Essex, Ontario

• Ability to attend in-person court appearances in Windsor and Chatham as needed

• Base salary plus a production bonus tied to collected legal fees

• Meaningful responsibility and room to grow with the firm

Our values guide our daily work: Calm in the Storm, Strong Advocacy, Integrity, Resilience, Own It, and A Path Forward. I’m looking for someone who puts those values into practice in how they treat clients, approach challenges, and support their colleagues.

If you’re ready for your next step, I’d love to hear about your experience and what you’re looking for in a team.

Please send your résumé and a brief introduction to [email protected], or message me here to start a conversation.
