Entry Level Tax Attorney Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get an entry level tax attorney job?
Start by building a foundation in tax law through relevant coursework, a law school tax clinic, or a summer associate position at a firm with a tax practice. Employers at this level look for candidates who can demonstrate familiarity with federal and state tax codes, solid legal research skills, and attention to detail. A strong writing sample focused on a tax issue gives you a concrete edge during interviews.
Which companies hire entry level tax attorneys?
Companies hiring entry level tax attorneys right now include Jobot, Epic, and Quintairos, Prieto, Wood & Boyer, P.A., based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Hiring at this level comes from a mix of large law firms with dedicated tax practices, corporate legal departments, accounting firms, and government agencies that bring on junior attorneys to support compliance and advisory work.
Are there remote entry level tax attorney jobs?
Yes, though most entry level roles still favor in-person or hybrid arrangements. About 42% of entry level tax attorney openings are remote or hybrid as of November 2026, which reflects the mentorship and supervision that firms typically want to provide to junior attorneys in their first role. Fully remote positions do exist, particularly in in-house corporate legal teams.
Are these new grad tax attorney jobs?
Yes, these listings include new grad, recent graduate, and junior tax attorney roles. A posting is new-grad friendly when it welcomes zero to two years of experience, counts law school clinics or internships toward the requirement, or accepts a strong academic record in lieu of prior work history. If a listing mentions "entry level" or "junior," it is generally open to candidates coming directly out of law school.
Which industries hire the most entry level tax attorneys?
Entry Level tax attorney roles concentrate in Law & Legal Services, Staffing & Recruiting, and Technology & Software, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Those sectors drive hiring at this level because tax compliance, structuring, and advisory needs are continuous, creating steady demand for junior attorneys who can support senior counsel and grow into broader tax responsibilities over time.
