Location: Downtown Palo Alto, University Avenue (In-Office 5 Days/Week)
Position Type: Full-Time, Partnership Track

About Us
We are a high-growth legal boutique based in the heart of Downtown Palo Alto, dedicated to the world’s most brilliant founders, innovators, and visionaries. We specialize in high-stakes immigration and corporate law for the tech industry. We do not operate like a traditional law firm. We operate like the startups we represent: fast, lean, highly strategic, and relentlessly focused on delivering victory.

We have completely reimagined the practice of law from first principles. By utilizing proprietary, highly optimized internal systems and frictionless workflows, we have eliminated the administrative drag that burns out most attorneys. Our singular focus is positive-sum outcomes for the people building the future of humanity.

The Opportunity
We are seeking a brilliant, driven, and meticulous Senior Associate Attorney to become a cornerstone of our practice. This is not a stepping-stone position; this is a career-defining role designed for an attorney looking for a 10-year home where they can build a legacy.

You will be working directly alongside the Founder/CEO in a fast-paced, environment. Because of our highly engineered internal processes, your sole focus will be on high-level legal execution, case strategy, and delivering unparalleled results for our clients at a volume and speed that traditional firms cannot match.

What You Will Do:

Execute at the Highest Level: Take ownership of a massive, high-stakes caseload, driving cases from initiation to victory. You will apply deep, proven expertise in O-1, EB-1A, EB-2 NIW, and H-1B visas. Experience with L-1, E-2, and I-485 applications is a strong plus.
Command the Details: Produce flawless, highly technical legal arguments and documentation for founder corporate structuring and complex immigration petitions.
Lead the Vanguard: Train, guide, and elevate our dedicated support team, fostering a culture of flawless execution and continuous improvement.
Collaborate in Real-Time: Work in-office 5 days a week at our University Avenue headquarters. We believe that true innovation, mentorship, and strategic alignment happen in person, shoulder-to-shoulder.

Drive the Mission: Serve as the sharp end of the spear, protecting the world's top talent against complex bureaucratic and legal hurdles.

Who You Are:

A Relentless Executor: You are hungry, ambitious, and relentless. You love the actual practice of law and take immense pride in your throughput and accuracy.
Intellectually Elite: You have 5 to 8 years of intense, high-level experience in business immigration (and/or corporate startup law). You digest complex concepts rapidly.
Fully Credentialed: You hold an active U.S. State Bar license in good standing (admission to any U.S. state bar is acceptable for our federal immigration practice).
A Systems Thinker: You thrive in environments that value extreme efficiency and standard operating procedures. You do not need to reinvent the wheel; you want to drive the fastest car on the track.

Loyal & Visionary: You are looking for a long-term home. You want to plant your flag, build your reputation, and grow alongside a firm that is redefining the industry.
