Job description

A growing and busy Immigration Firm located in DMV area is looking to hire an attorney to join the quickly evolving firm.

Murray Osorio PLLC is an immigration law firm dedicated to producing excellent legal work, fostering a connection with our clients, all while working in a collaborative and energetic environment. Our firm specializes in removal defense, humanitarian applications, family-based immigration, criminal-immigration, employment-based immigration, naturalization, and appellate and federal litigation.

Job Duties:

We are looking to hire a highly motivated attorney to join our team. The ideal candidate has the legal acumen to complete their work with limited to no guidance (though collaboration among colleagues is always encouraged) and has an understanding of immigration law. Attorneys should have the capacity to handle a significant caseload and meet minimum case completion metrics while regularly conducting consultations for potential new clients. Leadership skills, the ability to work within a team setting, and work with paralegals through case processes is a must. The attorneys have the opportunity to participate in firm committees related to the management of the firm and under the guidance of firm partners. This is a great opportunity for someone really looking to build something and could be a partner track position for the right person.

We have a hybrid model which allows the senior attorney to work from home part of the week, and be based out of either our Fairfax, VA or Silver Spring, MD office for the remainder. Minimal travel will be required for individual hearings and USCIS interviews.

· Able to work in a fast-paced environment.

Preferred Qualifications:

· Active bar membership in either Virginia or Maryland

· At least 1 to five years of immigration experience
