Brown Law, PLLC is a boutique immigration law firm that specializes in exceptionally high quality legal representation to immigrant clients before USCIS, the Immigration Court and the Board of Immigration Appeals.
Associate Attorney Position. Brown Law is growing and seeking to add a bilingual (Spanish and English) associate attorney to our team to represent the firm’s existing clients. The associate would meet with the firm's clients to prepare court filings and declarations for their immigration cases; write and prepare trial briefs; attend court hearings and litigate trials in Immigration Court; as well as file appeals and conduct negotiations with Immigration officials and prosecutors. Our ideal candidate is a strong legal writer who is organized, detail-oriented and able to effectively manage deadlines. As the firm's clientele mainly speaks Spanish, the Firm is considering only bilingual candidates that speak English and Spanish.
