Removal Defense Attorney — Fully Remote (Bilingual English/Spanish)
We're seeking an experienced Removal Defense Attorney to join our team to review cases and collaborate with paralegals on call-ups. You'll analyze case documentation, conduct legal research, draft filings, and guide our paralegal team on case strategy. The ideal candidate has substantive removal defense experience and confident written and spoken Spanish since most of our clients are from Venezuela and across Latin America.
We're looking for an attorney who knows the courtroom but feels most at home in strategy and writing: building the case theory, drafting strong written advocacy, and helping a paralegal see why a particular argument matters. You're meticulous and organized, but you can shift gears without drama when a court development or a triage call comes in. You don't sweat the small stuff. You're independent and proactive, but you'd rather be part of a team than off on your own because collaboration with clients and colleagues genuinely energizes you, and you see mentoring our paralegals as part of the work, not an interruption to it.
There are no billable hour requirements. As a fully remote position, you'll have the autonomy to work from your home base and structure your day around when you do your best work in collaboration with the team and within case deadlines. We understand that a meaningful legal career can take many forms, and we're looking for someone who wants to build a sustainable, long-term practice with us.
