- Maintain tight case tracking, calendars, and internal documentation to ensure deadlines are consistently met
- Communicate directly with clients and stakeholders in professional, clear written and verbal English (and Spanish when needed)
- Provide proactive updates, flag risks early, and keep cases moving without constant follow-ups
- Ensure drafting and client-facing communication are human-written and professionally polished (no reliance on AI-generated messaging)
Must-Have:
- 2–3+ years of direct business (employment-based) immigration paralegal experience in a law firm or corporate immigration environment
- Hands-on experience preparing and supporting filings for H-1B/H-4, L-1A/L-1B/L-2, TN, O-1, and E-3
