Alma is hiring an Immigration Attorney

About the Role

Shape the future of immigration law by combining deep legal expertise with innovation. You’ll handle a broad range of employment-based immigration matters—including EB-1A/B, EB-2 NIW, O-1A/B, H-1B, L-1, PERM, TN, and E-2 visas—providing strategic guidance from intake through resolution.

What You’ll Do

  • Act as attorney of record, drafting clear, compelling petitions tailored to each client’s profile
  • Identify risks early and communicate case status with directness and consistency
  • Guide clients through complex processes with empathy and strategic foresight
  • Take full ownership of your caseload, including escalations and final outcomes
  • Improve legal workflows by refining templates, processes, and documentation standards
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to identify opportunities for automation and efficiency
  • Advise on client eligibility and recommend optimal immigration pathways

What We’re Looking For

  • At least 3 years of experience in employment-based immigration law
  • Active license to practice law and a J.D. or LL.M. from an accredited institution
  • A client-first mindset—where legal excellence and service quality are inseparable
  • Strong judgment in ambiguous situations and the ability to navigate gray areas with precision
  • Reliability under pressure and commitment to follow-through
  • Enthusiasm for AI-assisted legal tools and a belief in technology’s role to enhance legal work
  • A builder’s mentality—driven to improve systems, not just use them

Why This Matters

You’re not just practicing law—you’re helping build a new kind of legal firm. One that values sound judgment, direct communication, and relentless execution. You’ll have direct access to legal leadership and play a key role in shaping a firm designed to be faster, smarter, and more human.

Compensation reflects experience with a hyper-competitive base salary. Benefits include full health coverage, 20 days PTO plus federal holidays, and a $250 monthly wellness allowance. This is a role for those who thrive on responsibility, embrace complexity, and want to leave a lasting mark on how immigration law is delivered.
