We are seeking a highly organized, extremely tech-literate Legal Secretary to support our senior attorney with the formatting, organization, and filing of legal documents.
This position was previously posted, but the hiring process was paused due to internal timing needs. We are now actively moving forward and warmly welcome both new applicants and candidates who applied previously and remain interested.
Immigration experience is strongly preferred. This role does not involve drafting applications; it is focused on precision, accuracy, and reliability in a fast-paced litigation environment.

- Track deadlines and maintain calendars for time-sensitive filings
- Scan, upload, and prepare service copies (FedEx/USPS)
- Maintain organized digital and physical case files
- Communicate professionally with courts and government agencies
Requirements
- Very strong technical skills, including Microsoft Word, Adobe Acrobat, PDF manipulation, scanning, e-filing systems, and electronic records management
- Immigration experience strongly preferred (EOIR, BIA, federal courts)
- 1–3 years of legal secretary or litigation support experience
- Extremely detail-oriented, with a strong eye for clean formatting and accuracy
- Organized and efficient, able to manage multiple deadlines simultaneously
- Calm, steady, and professional under pressure
- Excellent time-management and communication skills
- Must be authorized to work in the United States and not require sponsorship now or in the future
