The role involves working with both detained and non-detained clients and serving as a skilled advocate at every stage of their case.

- JD degree from an accredited law school with an active license to practice law in any U.S. state; Texas Bar preferred but not required.
- Strong legal writing, research, and oral advocacy skills, and the ability to manage a high-volume, fast-paced environment.
- Direct EOIR courtroom experience required, with demonstrated ability to manage cases independently from intake through hearing.
- Valid driver's license for necessary travel within Central Texas.
Preferred experience:
- Prior experience handling cases with criminal history intersections or complex relief applications (e.g., asylum, CAT, withholding) is a plus.
- Experience with VAWA, U-visa, or other humanitarian relief forms is a plus.
