Are you looking for a place where you can slide by doing a minimal amount of work? Are you uninterested in making sure you cultivate and present your absolute best self for the sake of clients’ goals and our goals as a unified team? If the answer is yes to any of the above, we will not be a good fit.

If you answered yes to the above, you might be our new paralegal!

We believe each team member should trust one another and hold themselves and their teammates accountable. Each person respects what others do on the team and values every role as integral and unique. While there are positions that are more supervisorial, and certain team members will ultimately be calling the shots on various matters, we value open channels of communication and welcome each team member’s input.

While there are tasks specifically attached to each role, our team members do not hesitate to jump in and lend a hand when necessary. Integrity and mutual respect (for fellow team members and clients) are high on our list of values.

We strive to create a work environment where each team member can be productive, refine their skills, and continue learning and improving. Our team members are problem solvers who use creativity and passion to bring new ideas and ways to constantly improve our systems and procedures ensuring we are giving our best to clients. Please only apply if you are excited about going above and beyond, and constantly honing your skills and learning!

Our office was founded based on a passion for immigrants’ rights, providing impeccable representation to clients and making sure at each step that clients know how much we care.

Each team member is here because they share this vision. Working with clients who have endured trauma and are facing overwhelming challenges takes an emotional toll and is something to be especially aware of given our paralegals are a primary point of contact for clients as we move their cases forward. We often let off steam by, when appropriate, being goofy and interjecting a lot of humor! We also promote identifying ways to not only take good care of ourselves but one another. To this end, we hold periodic group trauma training.

We believe in creating and following proven systems and we are goal-oriented. When we work, we are organized and track our time. But we also value time away from work and promote a healthy work-life balance so that we can recharge and be at our best for clients and one another.

How do you feel reading this so far? If you’re feeling excited, please read on! We understand this is a longer job ad, but we are determined to find the best of the best who feel excited about being an integral part of our tight-knit, big-hearted team.

Our paralegal will be charged with preparing applications to USCIS and the Immigration Court, including writing, forms, and supporting evidence.

Our paralegal can diligently track time and work efficiently allowing the office to thrive while also allowing plenty of space for themselves to rest and recharge outside of work hours.
