We’re growing! Hiring a Tampa Bay Family Law Attorney

The Diorio Family Law Group is seeking an experienced, local family law attorney to join our remote law firm team on a 1099 contract basis and room to grow as our practice expands. Approximately 10 billable hours per week to start with room to grow.

Hourly rate: $100-$150 per hour depending on experience.

Our firm helps clients move through divorce and family transitions with compassion, clear guidance, and a focus on their future. We value amicable resolutions, and we need an attorney who is comfortable litigating when a case requires it.

A Firm Culture That Leaves Room for Life

We are on a mission to change how families experience divorce with a focus on out-of-court settlement wherever possible. We take our work seriously but believe there should be room to enjoy life, too. We have no minimum billable-hour requirements, no expectation of late nights or weekend work, and we close at noon on Fridays. We value teamwork, a sense of humor, and supporting one another.

Our approach centers on helping families reach thoughtful, lasting resolutions. We pursue settlement whenever possible and prepare confidently for hearings and trials when needed. Litigation is part of the work, but resolving cases and helping clients move forward is the heart of our practice.

We’re looking for someone who:

• Is licensed and in good standing with The Florida Bar
• Has at least two years of Florida family law experience; ideal candidate will have 5+ years
• Can confidently manage contested matters, prepare for hearings, and advocate in court
• Lives in the Tampa Bay area and/or is available for local court appearances
• Works well remotely and can manage cases independently while collaborating with our team
• Communicates clearly, follows through, and treats clients with care
• Values practical solutions and thoughtful advocacy

The work includes:

Managing divorce, paternity, and post-judgment matters; advising clients; drafting and reviewing pleadings; overseeing discovery; negotiating settlements; and representing clients at mediation and hearings, and occasionally at trial.

The arrangement:

This is a remote position with local court appearances as needed. You’ll have paralegal support to help manage your caseload.

The position begins on a 1099 contract basis, with compensation and workload discussed based on experience and availability, with the opportunity to transition into a full time salaried role in 2027, depending on firm growth and mutual fit.

If you’re a capable courtroom advocate who also believes families deserve a thoughtful path forward, likes working from home but with a fun and highly engaged remote team, I’d love to connect!

Please send your résumé and a brief introduction to [email protected], including your family law experience and availability.

I’ve spent years working in courtrooms, first as a prosecutor and public defender, then as a divorce lawyer. That experience is part of who I am as an attorney.

But some of my most meaningful work now happens around a mediation table.

I love giving people the time and space to talk through what life will actually look like after a divorce: where the children will spend holidays, how they’ll handle school and activities, and what each person needs to feel ready for the next chapter.

Those conversations aren’t always easy. But when a family can make those decisions together, in a way that fits their lives, it can make a real difference in how they move forward.

he Florida Supreme Court forms are a fine starting place. They are not the whole conversation.

They cover holidays, school breaks, summer. They do not cover the storm.

And in Florida, the storm comes. An evacuation order, a shelter in place, a week without power. Those are the moments when the exchange cannot happen the way it is written.

That language does not come standard. Your mediator or your attorney writes it in.

Where are the kids going? With whom? If they stay with the parent they are already with, how does that get balanced out afterward.

It is a calm conversation on a calm day, and it saves you a very hard one later. Reach out and we can talk through what yours should say.

Because the end of a marriage doesn’t have to mean the end of respect.

When you choose mediation, you’re choosing peace for yourself, your children, and your future.

Want to talk through your options? Our team is here to help. Call or send us a message to get started.

Divorce shouldn’t destroy your chance at peace.

Too often, the process itself turns parents into enemies making it impossible to ever sit across from each other and say, “Let’s put the drama down and put our kids first.” At our law office, we believe there’s a better way.

A way that protects your dignity.
Keeps your children at the center.
And gives you back a sense of empowerment in the hardest season of your life.

Because your future family moments are worth protecting.

When we dropped our daughter off at college, her dad and I were there together.

There was a time when I couldn’t have imagined that. Our divorce was high conflict, and we had two little kids in the middle of it. Co-parenting was hard for a long time.

Things didn’t change overnight. We still had our hurts. But we made a choice to stop letting those hurts shape our children’s experience of having two parents.

Little by little, we learned to communicate better. We shared Halloweens. We sat together at ball games. And eventually, our kids could have both of us in the same room without feeling like they needed to worry about us.

That college drop-off meant so much to me because I know how far we had come.

You don’t have to be best friends to be good co-parents. You can build something that lets your children love both of you freely and have you both there for the moments that matter.

Divorce changes the shape of a family. It doesn’t have to take away its ability to show up for one another.

A lot of people sit on the phone number for months.

I understand why. Calling a law firm feels like a point of no return, like you are starting something you cannot stop.

That is not what a consultation is.

A consultation is where you find out what your options actually are. Some people leave with a plan. Some people leave and think about it for another year. Both are fine.

Maybe you are just gathering information. Maybe you are pretty sure. Maybe you are only here because someone told you to hire the meanest lawyer in town and that did not sit right with you.

All of that is welcome. Call when you are ready.

January gets called divorce month because of the call volume. March has the most filings.

Which means right now, a lot of people are quietly reading, saving videos, and saying nothing to anyone.

If that is you, there is no time table. Learning your options is not the same as making a decision.

Empower yourself with information first. The decision comes later, and it comes easier.

Nobody makes their best decisions at hour eleven.

That is my honest problem with the marathon mediation day. People agree to things at 8 p.m. that they would never agree to at 10 a.m., simply because they want it to be over.

Kids First Mediation was designed to prevent exactly that. Short sessions, one to two hours, spread across a few weeks. You go home, you sleep on it, you come back.

And the kids come first in the order of operations, not just in the sentiment. That piece gets settled before anyone opens a financial statement.

I got certified in it because it is the closest thing I have found to a process that respects how people actually make decisions.

If that sounds like the pace your family needs, let's talk about whether it is a fit.

A lot of parenting plans got tested in 2020, and again every storm season since.

Because there are times when you simply cannot do the exchange. A shelter in place order. An evacuation route. That is not one parent breaking the agreement. That is life not matching the paperwork.

The standard divorce forms do not address any of it, so most plans stay quiet on it.

It can be written in, though. Who the kids evacuate with. Where they go. What happens to the other parent's time once everyone is home safe.

Gray areas are where the conflict grows later. Closing this one takes a short conversation on an ordinary day.

If you are working through your plan right now, ask for emergency clauses by name. If yours is already finished, we are happy to take a look with you.
