Job Description
Do you love fighting for immigrants?
Know the difference between H-1B and PERM? And when a foreign national needs to apply for a family unity waiver?
Like to spot issues and problem solve?
If the answer to these questions is “Heck, yes!” and if you are a licensed attorney, we may have the ideal position for you.
Our national immigration firm is looking for a leader who is ready to look for a challenge.
Someone who can work with our leads team to sign up new cases, five days a week.
Talking to immigrants and the people who love them to help figure out if our firm can help navigate the immigration process and get them the benefits that they desire.
You don’t have to fill out or revise forms.
And you don’t have to worry about collecting payments from anyone.
Instead, you get to work entirely remotely from the comfort of home.
