Immigration Associate Attorney

Company Description

Founded in 2007, our boutique immigration law firm has built a strong reputation for excellence, integrity, and client-centered advocacy. We practice exclusively immigration law, allowing our attorneys to develop deep expertise across a broad range of matters, including family-based and employment-based petitions, adjustment of status, hardship waivers, nonimmigrant and immigrant visa consular processing, naturalization, PERM labor certifications, and interview preparation.

We are a close-knit, mission-driven team that takes pride in high-quality work, thoughtful strategy, and meaningful client relationships. Every case matters—and so does every team member.
