  • Maintain timely communication with clients, even under high caseload pressure.
  • Collaborate with senior leadership on practice growth, quality control, and litigation innovation.
  • Required Qualifications:
  • Active license to practice law in any U.S. state (California Bar highly preferred).
  • Minimum 5 years of direct experience in Removal Proceedings (detained and/or non-detained).
  • Strong knowledge of immigration statutes, regulations, case law, and EOIR procedures.
  • Demonstrated experience conducting full individual hearings and preparing complex filings.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
