Job Description

Family Law Associate (1–3 Years Call)

Simmonds Law | Hybrid / Remote / In-Office (Ottawa)

About Us

Simmonds Law is a business-focused law firm that does things differently. We’re a modern, entrepreneurial team that prioritizes client results, smart growth, and a genuinely positive work environment. Many of our clients are small business owners, and we actively support our associates by marketing their services internally and through our extended professional network across Eastern Ontario.

We’re now launching a dedicated family law team to meet the growing needs of our client base. Many of our business clients are navigating complex personal transitions, and we’re building a practice that delivers high-quality family law services with the same business-minded, client-focused approach that defines the rest of our firm.

We care about doing excellent legal work—and ensuring our lawyers are well-compensated for it. We're not concerned about where you work from. If you're more productive at home, in the office, or a mix of both, we support that. What matters to us is that you're a team player, a strong ambassador for the firm, and someone who takes ownership of their practice.

About the Role

We’re seeking a Family Law Associate with 1–3 years at the bar who has an existing book of business or a partial book and wants to grow it in a flexible and supportive environment. You’ll be backed by a skilled family law clerk, benefit from internal and external referral sources, and have the freedom to build your practice the way that works best for you—with full support from the firm.

What We Offer

Competitive salary and compensation structure tied to performance and revenue growth

Law Society of Ontario and LAWPRO fees fully covered

Firm-paid parking

Annual marketing budget to grow your brand and presence

Fitness stipend to support your well-being

Experienced family law clerk to support your files

Steady internal referrals from our business law practice and professional network

Hybrid, remote, or in-office work arrangements—your choice

Collaborative and forward-thinking team that values innovation and impact

Who You Are

A member in good standing with the Law Society of Ontario (1–3 years of call)

Entrepreneurial in spirit with a desire to grow your practice

Professional, reliable, and committed to delivering excellent client service

Comfortable with autonomy but values collaboration

Interested in contributing to and shaping a growing firm

Has a partial or full book of business in family law (or is on their way to building one)

Why Join Us?

This isn’t a traditional law firm. We don’t do things "because that’s the way it’s always been done." We're constantly evolving and open to new ways of delivering value—to clients and to each other. If you're looking for a firm where you’ll be trusted, supported, and rewarded for your efforts, we want to hear from you.

To Apply

Please send your resume and a short note about what you're looking for in your next role to Lindsay Bachand at lbachand@simmondslaw.ca.
