We're looking for an experienced Senior Immigration Attorney at our Charlotte, NC office. This is an opportunity for an attorney who already knows immigration law and is ready to take meaningful ownership of cases, work directly with clients, ensure quality legal services, and play a key role in delivering exceptional representation.

If you have 5+ years of U.S. immigration law experience, particularly with family-based and humanitarian cases before USCIS, we'd love to meet you.

The Opportunity:
As a Senior Immigration Attorney, you'll take the lead on a diverse caseload involving individuals and families navigating some of the most important and consequential moments of their lives.

You'll have the opportunity to:

Develop case strategy and independently manage complex immigration matters.
Represent clients in family-based and humanitarian immigration cases before USCIS.
Handle matters including adjustment of status, I-130 petitions, waivers, naturalization, VAWA, U visas, T visas, asylum, and other humanitarian-based applications.
Prepare and review petitions, applications, legal briefs, RFEs, NOIDs, and supporting documentation.
Prepare clients for USCIS interviews and help them understand their options and risks.
Work directly with clients and provide thoughtful, practical legal guidance.
Review work prepared by paralegals and legal assistants to maintain quality standards.
Stay current on changes to immigration law, USCIS policies, and procedures.
Help us continuously improve our processes, case strategies, and client experience.

Who You Are:

You Are:

Experienced: 5+ years practicing U.S. immigration law, with substantial USCIS experience.
An attorney with an active license to practice law in the United States or Puerto Rico.
