About this role

About the Role The Operational Staff Attorney reviews immigration applications and related filings under close supervision and guidance from senior attorneys. The role supports clients in obtaining their documents and remaining united with their families through assigned attorney-of-record responsibilities, client communications, and emergency hearing coverage. The attorney follows approved instructions, templates, and legal strategy, completes assigned review tasks accurately and on time, and escalates non-standard legal issues to senior attorneys.

Your Key Contributions Serve as attorney of record on assigned immigration records pursuant to Form G-28 for USCIS matters or Form E-28 for immigration court matters, as applicable. Support development and implementation of legal strategy for assigned USCIS matters and cases pending in immigration court; obtain senior attorney direction and approval for strategy decisions and escalate non-standard issues. Review draft immigration applications, responses to Requests for Evidence, appeals, and court filings in accordance with instructions from senior attorneys and approved legal guidance.

Evaluate assigned filings and supporting evidence for accuracy, completeness, consistency, and alignment with the case strategy; identify, track, and make necessary edits before submission. Coordinate corrections and requests for additional information with appropriate team members; confirm that identified issues are resolved and required attorney review is completed before filing. Speak with clients to answer questions about their cases, generally through an interpreter; explain next steps clearly and document material communications in the case record.

Attend master calendar hearings in immigration court only when emergency coverage is needed, with preparation and substantive guidance from senior attorneys as appropriate. Meet established daily goals for attorney review tasks based on team assignments while maintaining required accuracy, legal review, and professional judgment. Monitor assigned filing and hearing deadlines, prioritize work, communicate status and obstacles, and escalate risks that could affect timely completion.
