Immigration Law Fellow - January 2027 Cohort

Konare Law

Frederick, MD • On-site

Full-time

Re-posted 8 days ago

Job description

ABOUT KONARE LAW
Konare Law is a boutique immigration law firm focused on removal defense, with offices in Frederick and Timonium, MD, Miami, and San Diego. Our practice is built around the people who need us most - individuals facing removal, families navigating complex immigration systems, and communities that deserve skilled, dedicated legal advocates.
We are not a large firm. We are an intentional one.
THE FELLOWSHIP
The Konare Law Fellowship is a 12-month structured immersion program for recent law graduates and junior attorneys in their first two years of practice. It is not a trial employment arrangement. It is a deliberate talent development pipeline - designed to produce attorneys who are billable-competent from Day 1 of hire, deeply fluent in our systems, and prepared to carry caseloads independently.
Fellows rotate through all major practice areas before specializing, carry supervised caseloads with real clients, and receive a formal hire decision at month ten. There is no ambiguity, no stringing people along.
We run two cohorts annually - one beginning in January and one in July.
"The firms that win long-term are not the ones with the lowest turnover - they are the ones whose institutional systems are so strong that turnover becomes irrelevant." - Abdoul A. Konare, Managing Attorney & CEO
WHAT YOU WILL DO
Months 1-3: Full Rotation
  • Rotate through removal defense, BIA appeals, family-based immigration, and employment-based immigration
  • Observe and assist on hearings, client intakes, filings, and case strategy sessions
  • Build familiarity with EOIR practice, firm systems, and client communication protocols
  • Participate in regular supervision and structured feedback sessions

Months 4-9: Supervised Caseload
  • Carry an assigned caseload under the direct supervision of a supervising attorney
  • Draft motions, briefs, petitions, declarations, and supporting documentation
  • Appear in immigration court under supervision as bar admission status permits
  • Begin billing - Fellows at 50% utilization are revenue-neutral against their stipend by Month 4
  • Manage client relationships with professionalism and cultural competency.

Months 10-12: Autonomous Operation
  • Operate independently with appropriate oversight on a full caseload
  • Contribute to the firm's training and onboarding infrastructure
  • Receive a formal offer decision at Month 10 - hire or no-hire, clearly communicated

QUALIFICATIONS
Required
  • JD. from an ABA-accredited law school; recent graduate (3L awaiting results) or attorney within 0-2 years of bar admission
  • Bar admission in any U.S. jurisdiction, or eligibility to sit for the bar within the program period
  • Demonstrated interest in immigration law through coursework, clinics, advocacy, or prior legal work
  • Exceptional written and verbal communication skills
  • Ability to manage multiple matters under deadline and supervising attorney direction

Strongly Preferred
  • Bilingual or multilingual - Spanish, French, and/or Arabic preferred
  • Clinical or externship experience in immigration law, removal defense, or asylum
  • Familiarity with EOIR proceedings, BIA practice, or humanitarian visa categories
  • Community connection to immigrant or refugee populations through service, advocacy, or lived experience
  • Top 25% of class or equivalent demonstrated academic or professional distinction

HOW TO APPLY
Candidates should submit the following to the Konare Law HR Department:
  • Resume or curriculum vitae
  • Cover letter addressing your interest in immigration law and removal defense specifically
  • Unofficial law school transcript
  • Writing sample (legal brief, memo, motion, or similar - 5-15 pages preferred)
  • Two references (at least one from a legal supervisor, professor, or clinic director)
