Full Job Description

About Valdez Law Firm

We're a dynamic, fast-growing immigration law firm built on fierce, compassionate advocacy. As a proud immigrant-owned and LGBT-owned firm — and staunch champions for women's rights and underrepresented communities — we understand exactly what's at stake when someone's future is on the line. We don't just process cases. We fight to keep families together and protect the people who need it most. We're looking for a senior EOIR paralegal who shares that mission and wants to grow with a firm that celebrates diversity, equity, and relentless advocacy.

The Role

This is a senior-level removal defense role for a paralegal who can own a caseload from intake through completion with minimal hand-holding. You'll be a linchpin of our EOIR practice — drafting, organizing, and keeping complex cases moving while attorneys focus on strategy and the courtroom. If you know your way around Immigration Court deadlines and take pride in a clean, hearing-ready file, this is your kind of job.

What you'll do

Manage an assigned EOIR caseload from intake through completion, keeping case files and case management records accurate and current in Cerenade (eIMMIGRATION)
Monitor Immigration Court, BIA, USCIS, and internal deadlines to ensure timely filings and steady case progression
Draft routine motions for attorney review — Motions to Continue, Change Venue, Substitute Counsel, Withdraw, Recalendar, Terminate, Sever, Consolidate, Reopen, Reconsider, and Motions to Appear via WebEx or Telephone
Assist with asylum, adjustment of status, bond, Cancellation of Removal (42A and 42B), family-based, and other filings assigned by the supervising attorney
Gather, review, and organize supporting evidence, declarations, translations, and exhibits for hearings and filings
Prepare hearing binders, exhibit packets, and filing packages in compliance with EOIR paper/ECAS and USCIS requirements
Communicate with clients, Immigration Courts, USCIS, ICE, the BIA, and other agencies on assigned matters
Support attorneys with litigation and immigration-related duties as assigned

What we're looking for

Proven paralegal experience with a strict focus on immigration law, especially EOIR/removal defense — enough that you can run a caseload independently
Strong knowledge of immigration procedures, forms, and agencies (EOIR, USCIS, ICE, OPLA, BIA)
Hands-on experience with Cerenade (eIMMIGRATION); familiarity with Westlaw or LexisNexis a plus
Excellent legal writing and drafting, sharp organizational skills, and the ability to juggle multiple cases under tight deadlines
Fluency in English and Spanish (required)
A genuine passion for advocating for immigrant, LGBTQ+, and other marginalized communities
Bonus: exposure to family law, SIJS, or wills and trusts

Why you'll want to be here

Thank you so much for your interest in Valdez Law Firm. Our culture is welcoming and team-first, and we make sure you have every tool you need to do your best work. We bring in office lunches and catering regularly because the team that eats together sticks together. There's real room to grow — we notice initiative, we reward people who figure things out and make the firm better, and we promote from within. Fair warning: this is a fast-paced office and there's rarely an easy day. We show up every day for our clients, their families, and their futures — and we're looking for someone who's ready to do the same.
