Stand Up for Clients. Defend Their Future. Make Every Case Count.

At MRA Law Group, we believe immigration law is about more than legal filings - it’s about protecting families, preserving opportunities, and fighting for people whose futures are on the line.

We are a fast-growing immigration law firm dedicated exclusively to U.S. Immigration Law, serving individuals and families facing some of the most challenging moments of their lives. Our clients trust us with matters that can determine where they live, whether families stay together, and what opportunities await them in the future.

We are seeking a passionate and driven Immigration Litigation Attorney who thrives in a fast-paced environment and is ready to step into a role where advocacy, strategy, and leadership matter every day.

As a Litigation Attorney, you will serve on the front lines of immigration advocacy, representing clients whose futures, families, and safety may depend on the outcome of their cases.

Responsibilities:

• Represent clients before the Immigration Courts (EOIR), USCIS, and the Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA)
• Represent clients at USCIS interviews, adjustment of status interviews, asylum interviews, and other immigration-related appointments
• Conduct Master Calendar Hearings, Individual Hearings, Bond Hearings, and other immigration court appearances
• Develop and execute litigation strategies for removal defense, asylum, humanitarian relief, waivers, and other complex immigration matters
• Prepare and argue motions, briefs, appeals, and legal memoranda

• Strong oral advocacy, legal writing, litigation, and research skills
• Ability to develop legal strategy and manage complex litigation matters independently
• Excellent communication and client relationship management abilities
• Ability to manage a fast-paced caseload with urgency, accountability, and attention to detail
• Additional languages such as Haitian Creole, Portuguese, or other multilingual capabilities are highly valued
