Immigration Attorney (Removal Defense, Asylum)

Immigration Attorney (Removal Defense, Asylum)

$110000 - $150000 per year | Miami, FL | On-site | Permanent

A bit about us:

This company is an established, multi-practice law firm based in Miami, Florida, with more than two decades serving the local community. The firm has built its reputation on affordable, accessible legal representation across immigration, criminal defense, personal injury, and traffic matters.

Collectively, the attorney team brings over a century of combined legal experience, and the firm maintains a strong track record of client satisfaction backed by thousands of positive reviews. This company operates as a tight knit, client focused practice where attorneys work closely with a broad base of Spanish, Haitian Creole, and Portuguese speaking clients in South Florida.

Why join us?

Attorneys at this company get the best of both worlds: the resources and case volume of a well established firm, paired with the autonomy and client relationships typical of a boutique practice. This is a firm where your work directly and visibly changes outcomes for real families and individuals navigating high stakes immigration matters. The firm invests in bilingual and multicultural client service, so your legal skills will be put to use in a community where the need is significant and the impact is immediate.

Leadership has a long tenure in the local legal market, offering mentorship and courtroom experience that's hard to find at larger, more bureaucratic firms. Compensation is competitive with the South Florida immigration law market, and the firm offers a genuine path to case ownership and professional growth rather than years spent purely in a support role.
