Careers at GordenLaw, LLC

At GordenLaw, we don’t dabble in family law—we lead it. We represent high-conflict and high-asset clients across Nebraska with precision, strength, and strategy. Our flat-fee model means our focus stays on results, not racking up hours.

Our clients come to us facing some of the most stressful events of their lives—and we help them walk through it with clarity, confidence, and control. Every client and every case deserves excellence.

We’re always looking to connect with exceptional people, even when we’re not advertising to hire. Whether you’re an aspiring law clerk or a licensed attorney with courtroom firepower, if you believe you belong in a high-performance team where standards matter, we want to hear from you.

Who Thrives at GordenLaw?

We aren’t a fit for people who want to coast, need constant hand-holding, or are looking for a “chill” law job. We are the right place for people who:

• Think critically, act decisively, and follow through to completion
• Want to grow and take real ownership of outcomes
• Handle feedback like professionals (no victims!)
• Write clearly, speak with confidence, and stay organized under pressure
• Respect systems, meet deadlines, and value efficiency
• Embrace technology and understand modern legal practice
• Are comfortable participating in business development efforts such as blogs, video, firm content, or social media

We don’t measure success by how many hours you bill—we measure it by the quality of your work, your integrity, and your ability to push cases forward with excellence.

If you’re looking for a laid-back, do-the-minimum environment, this is not your firm. We don’t coast. But if you love solving real problems for real people, and being part of a team that wins with integrity, you’ll fit right in.

We’re Always Interested In:

• Law Clerks & Legal Interns
  Students with excellent research, writing, and organization skills who are hungry to learn the real work of lawyering in high-stakes litigation.
• Associate Attorneys
  Nebraska-licensed or soon-to-be-licensed attorneys who want courtroom experience, deep mentorship, and the chance to build a reputation for handling serious family law cases with power and poise.

We’re always building a team of talented individuals who want to be stronger together. Whether your ideal start date is in a few months or a few years, the best conversations start early.

A note about non-lawyer, staff positions: When GordenLaw has openings, we post the same on LinkedIn (https://www.linkedin.com/company/gordenlaw/about ) and Indeed (https://www.indeed.com/cmp/Gordenlaw,-LLC ).

Why You’ll Love Working With Us

• You won’t bill by the hour. Our flat-fee model means your time is spent on strategy, not timesheets.
• You’ll do real legal work. We don’t hide associates behind busy work—we put you in the game.
• You’ll grow faster. We provide clear feedback, direct access to leadership, and constant opportunities to level up.
• You’ll be an integral part of a team right away. We value people who bring ideas to the table—not just those who take orders.

We care more about how you show up than where you went to school. If you bring excellence, humility, and drive, we’ll teach you the rest.
