At The Law Offices of Roderick C. White, we believe great attorneys do their best work when they're empowered, supported, and trusted to lead.

We're launching an immigration practice in our Dallas office, and we're looking for an Immigration Attorney who wants a rare kind of opportunity: the chance to build a department from the ground up. This isn't a seat in an established practice with a playbook already written — it's a chance to shape how we serve immigrant clients, set the standards, and grow into a leadership role as the department grows around you.

Why Join Our Firm?

If you've ever wanted a real voice in how a practice takes shape — case strategy, intake criteria, workflows — this is that opportunity. You'll work alongside our existing intake, case management, marketing, and operations teams, contributing directly to building out the immigration side the right way, from day one.

What You Can Expect

• A true ground-floor opportunity — you'll help define how this department runs, not just execute someone else's process
• Direct access to firm leadership while the department takes shape
• Support from existing intake, case management, and operations staff as the practice grows
• Modern technology and case management systems already in place firm-wide
• A voice in future hiring and structure as the department expands
• A team culture built on accountability, professionalism, and client advocacy

What You'll Do

Because this practice is new, your day-to-day will take shape alongside you — but you can expect the role to include:

• Advise clients on immigration options and strategy, including family-based petitions, employment-based visas, naturalization, asylum, and removal/deportation defense
• Prepare and file petitions, applications, and supporting documentation with USCIS, EOIR, and other relevant agencies
• Represent clients in immigration court proceedings, hearings, and consular processing matters
• Conduct legal research and stay current on evolving immigration law and policy
• Maintain proactive, clear communication with clients throughout the life of their case
• Help establish intake criteria, case workflows, and best practices for the department as it grows
• Work collaboratively with support staff to ensure efficient case progression and an exceptional client experience

If you have a particular area of immigration law you want this department to specialize in, we want to hear your vision for it.

What We're Looking For

The ideal candidate is self-directed, entrepreneurial, and excited by the chance to build something rather than inherit it.

Qualifications:

• Juris Doctor (J.D.) from an accredited law school
• Active Texas Bar license and good standing
• Immigration law experience strongly preferred; litigation or related experience considered
• Comfortable operating with a high degree of independence in a new, still-developing practice area
• Strong legal writing, analytical, and problem-solving abilities
• Excellent client communication and relationship-building skills
• Exceptional organization and time management
• Spanish fluency is highly preferred

Compensation & Benefits

We recognize and reward exceptional performance. Our benefits include:

• $85,000–$120,000 starting salary, commensurate with experience
• Health, dental, and vision insurance
• 401(k) with employer matching
• Paid vacation, holidays, and paid time off
• Professional development and continuing education support
• Modern office with complimentary meals and workplace amenities
• A collaborative culture where your contributions are recognized and valued

Schedule

Full-Time, Monday – Friday, in person (Dallas, TX office) with occasional after-hours intake.
