Description:
Manifest Law is one of the first AI-native corporate immigration firms in the country, and one of the fastest-growing — proof that attorneys want to practice law this way. Our attorneys handle sophisticated, high-stakes matters, with technology that removes the busywork rather than replacing the lawyer.Manifest was built to offer the best of both worlds: the scale of a larger firm with the quality client service of a boutique. Manifest OS — the technology that powers the firm — carries the operational weight, so our attorneys spend their time where it actually matters: on strategy, on judgment, on the client in front of them. The result is a practice with the care of a boutique and the capability of a large firm.
We think the practice of law should be a craft, and the attorneys who do it well deserve a practice that grows with them — supported by technology, not replaced by it, with the time and autonomy to build something that's genuinely their own. We're building the kind of institution attorneys are proud to put on their résumé.
This is a firm for attorneys who want more from their career: real ownership of your cases, the kind of client relationships that come from having time with them, a sustainable pace, and a front-row seat in building what a modern immigration practice can look like.
Immigration law has been done the same way for decades. We're here to raise the bar, and we're hiring the people who will raise it with us.
What You'll Do:
- Lead and own a practice within Manifest's individual-immigration business — extraordinary-ability and high-skilled matters, including EB-1A, EB-2 NIW, and O-1A — with full accountability for its growth, quality, and profitability.
- Be the face of your practice: featured in Manifest's content, on socials, in client-facing materials, and in the press. Clients should know your name and choose Manifest because they trust you specifically.
- Build and lead a team of attorneys and paralegals — hiring, developing, and holding your pod to Manifest's quality bar, coaching them through the hardest calls and highest-stakes matters.
- Drive business development for your practice, working with Manifest's marketing and BD engine while building your own network and referral base.
- Use Manifest's AI-powered platform — automated workflows, smart draft review, and a unified case-context hub — as a genuine performance multiplier for your team, not a replacement for your judgment.
- Own the P&L for your practice: case source, team performance, and client satisfaction all roll up to your bottom line.
What We're Looking For:
- J.D. and active U.S. bar admission
- 10+ years of immigration experience with deep expertise in extraordinary-ability and high-skilled categories — EB-1A, EB-2 NIW, and O-1A — including attorneys who have already built or run their own practice
- A demonstrated track record leading and developing attorneys, not just carrying your own docket
- Comfort with public visibility — thought leadership, social presence, media, and client-facing events
- A professional network and reputation that generates referrals and inbound client trust
- Genuine entrepreneurial ambition: you want to build a practice, not just staff one
- Every Manifest attorney — and every practice they lead — is held to the same floor: aggressive response-time SLAs, rigorous legal quality, and the client communication standard that makes clients pay a premium for Manifest. That standard doesn't flex with case source or volume.
