Job description

Do you love crafting high-quality petitions? And revising until it’s right?

Are you excited about using Claude and other AI-powered tools in an ethical way in an immigration practice that is closer to a start-up than a traditional law practice?

De Wit Immigration Law, P.A. based in Miami, FL is looking for a Spanish-speaking Immigration Associate with 3+ years of business immigration experience and outstanding writing skills to join their team either in a hybrid or 100% remote role.

In this position, you’ll be working on a diverse caseload including the full case lifecycle of Ls, Es, and Os and their immigrant-visa counterparts, as well as PERMs. You’ll also manage Hs, TNs, EB-5, and federal litigation.

This is not a document-assembly role. You will manage your caseload like it is your own practice, while working collaboratively with team members and receiving mentorship from the owner.

Compensation and Benefits

• Base: $120,000 to $160,000, set by the level of independent work you can demonstrate
• Performance and origination bonuses
• 401(k) with 3.5% employer match
• Medical and vision insurance
• Flexible scheduling and generous PTO
• Hybrid based out of their Miami office or 100% remote

More About You

The firm hires on character. Associates who thrive at De Wit:

• Care about the craft of legal writing and rewrite until it is right
• Own the caseload without supervision or chasing
• Engage clients across the U.S. and Latin America in fluent English and Spanish, with cultural fluency to match
• Say \"I don't know\" and then figure it out
• Want to grow into leadership and help shape the firm

If you prefer high-volume environments, traditional hierarchies, or staying in your lane, this is not the right firm for you.

Qualifications

• J.D. and licensed in at least one U.S. jurisdiction (Florida preferred)
• 3+ years of U.S. business immigration practice focusing on Os, Ls, Es, EB-1A/Cs, PERMs, Hs, TNs, EB-5s, and federal litigation.
• Fluent/Proficient in English and Spanish
• A flat team. Everyone at the firm contributes, whatever their role, and has an equal seat at the table. Good ideas matter more than seniority.
• Federal litigation exposure. Most business immigration firms do not litigate. They do, and you will.
• Bilingual practice. Spanish is part of how the firm operates, not a side skill.
• A modern firm. They use cutting-edge technology (Claude API, Monday, Cerenade) to work better and want team members who help the firm keep improving.
• A path to leadership. The firm is still growing, and the next step is to help shape the legal team as they scale. That means growth opportunities including partnership for people who are hungry and add real value.

De Wit Immigration Law, P.A. is an equal opportunity employer. The firm does not discriminate on the basis of age, disability, sex, race, national origin, religion, gender identity, sexual orientation, marriage/civil partnership status, pregnancy/maternity status, veteran status, family history and genetic information, or any other protected status.
