About the Role

This position offers a hybrid work arrangement, combining remote work with in-person responsibilities, including court appearances and client meetings.

Independently manage a caseload involving defensive asylum, withholding of removal, Convention Against Torture (CAT) protection, cancellation of removal, adjustment of status, and other forms of relief.

Coordinate with other attorneys and staff to ensure timely and effective case management.

Qualifications

Juris Doctor (J.D.) degree from an accredited law school.
2–4 years of experience practicing immigration law, with a strong emphasis on EOIR removal defense.

Work Arrangement

This is a full-time, hybrid position based in Brownsburg, Indiana. The position combines remote work with regular in-person responsibilities, including in-office client meetings and court appearances.
