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
Months 4-9: Supervised Caseload
Months 10-12: Autonomous Operation
QUALIFICATIONS
Required
Strongly Preferred
HOW TO APPLY
Candidates should submit the following to the Konare Law HR Department:
