Job Description

Who We Are

For nearly 50 years, Doehring & Doehring has been the family-run firm that Houstonians trust when their estates become complicated. Our boutique team handles the full spectrum of probate law—estate administration, guardianships, fiduciary representation, and, yes, the occasional knock-down courtroom fight when heirs, executors, and trustees don’t see eye-to-eye. 

The Opportunity

We’re looking for a Litigation Attorney who can turn chaos into crisp strategy. If you can read a 200-page trust, defuse a sibling rivalry, and still make your 3 p.m. hearing downtown, you’ll fit right in.

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead contested probate, trust, and guardianship cases from intake through trial and appeal
  • Draft pleadings, discovery, and dispositive motions that make judges nod appreciatively
  • Conduct depositions, mediations, and evidentiary hearings with poise and persuasion
  • Collaborate with our estate-planning team to spot (and solve) issues before they ignite
  • Mentor junior associates and paralegals—knowledge hoarders need not apply

What Your Bring
  • 3-7 years’ civil litigation experience required. This is not an entry-level position
  • Current license, good standing with the State Bar of Texas
  • Proven courtroom experience and stellar legal writing skills
  • Emotional intelligence to navigate grieving families and high-stakes fiduciary conflicts
  • A dash of humor—because probate litigation can get weird, and levity helps

Why Doehring & Doehring
  • Small-firm agility, big-firm impact. Direct client contact and meaningful courtroom time from day one
  • Mentorship. Work shoulder-to-shoulder with a veteran probate litigator who likes to teach
  • Culture that cares. We provide concierge-level service to our clients and offer genuine support to one another. We have a 33-hour work week.
