Full Job Description

Join a Firm Built for Attorneys

Diener Law is seeking an experienced Immigration Attorney with at least four years of practice experience and substantial immigration court experience. We are a growing national immigration firm focused on removal defense, asylum, and humanitarian relief.

This is a remote position designed to let attorneys focus on legal work, not administrative tasks. Our dedicated support team manages much of the case preparation and administrative process so you can concentrate on strategy, advocacy, litigation, and client outcomes.

If you're passionate about defending immigrants, enjoy courtroom advocacy, and want the support of an experienced team behind you, we'd like to talk.

What Makes This Opportunity Different

At Diener Law, attorneys spend their time doing attorney-level work.

You receive substantially prepared case files supported by trained legal staff.
You are responsible for legal strategy, issue spotting, substantive revisions, final review, and representation before USCIS and the Immigration Court.
Spanish is not required. Our bilingual team manages client communication, and interpreters are provided when needed.
Federal court admission is not required. When federal court work requires admission, the firm will assist with sponsorship where permitted.
Work remotely while remaining fully integrated with a collaborative legal team.
Focus on meaningful advocacy rather than excessive administrative burdens.
Competitive compensation that combines a strong base salary with a substantial merit-based quarterly bonus program and significant earning potential.

Responsibilities

You will:

Represent clients in removal and asylum proceedings before immigration courts nationwide, primarily through video appearances.
Attend in-person immigration court hearings when required by the court, case circumstances, or client needs.
Handle detained and non-detained removal-defense matters.
Conduct virtual visits with detained clients.
Litigate asylum, withholding of removal, cancellation of removal, waivers, and other forms of immigration relief.
Review and supervise case preparation performed by support staff.
Manage USCIS matters, including:
Family-based petitions (I-130)
Adjustment of Status (AOS)
Naturalization (N-400)
Citizenship matters (N-600)
VAWA petitions
U Visas
I-601 and I-601A waivers
Affirmative asylum applications
Consular processing matters
Contribute to our expanding federal court practice, including habeas petitions and other immigration-related federal litigation opportunities.

Workloads vary depending on hearing schedules, with some weeks being more litigation-intensive than others. USCIS work is generally balanced alongside court responsibilities.

Who Succeeds Here

We are looking for attorneys who:

Have 4+ years of experience practicing immigration law as a licensed attorney.
Have substantial EOIR experience handling removal-defense matters from initial hearings through final merits hearings.
Are comfortable litigating:
Asylum and withholding claims
Cancellation of removal
In-court adjustment of status
Waivers
Motions to reopen
Motions to terminate
Other contested immigration court proceedings
Have detained-docket experience (preferred but not required).
Hold a J.D. from an accredited law school and an active bar license in good standing in any U.S. jurisdiction.
Can effectively supervise, mentor, and quality-control the work of a remote support team.
Care deeply about client outcomes and are committed to high-quality representation.

Compensation & Benefits Compensation

Base Salary: $100,000 – $140,000, depending on experience.
Quarterly Performance Bonus Program: Attorneys are eligible to participate in the firm's merit-based quarterly bonus program. Bonus awards are based on the quality of legal work, productivity, client service, teamwork, case outcomes, business needs, and overall contribution to the firm.
Quarterly bonuses start at $20,000 per quarter for attorneys who meet performance expectations and may increase based on individual performance and firm results.
High-performing attorneys who consistently exceed expectations may earn substantially more through the bonus program, with total annual compensation potentially reaching $250,000+ per year.

Benefits

401(k) with 4% employer match after one year
Health coverage subsidy stipend
15 days of paid time off (combined vacation and sick leave)
8 paid holidays annually
Remote work flexibility

Work Location: Remote (Travel Required as Needed)

Travel Requirements

This is a remote position; however, attorneys must be willing and able to travel as needed for court appearances, hearings, client representation, firm meetings, trainings, or other business-related matters. While most immigration court appearances are conducted remotely, certain courts and proceedings may require in-person attendance.

About Diener Law

Diener Law is an immigration law firm with 15 offices across North Carolina, California, Arizona, and Texas. We are supported by a substantial operations team and continue to grow nationwide.

Our practice focuses heavily on removal defense and asylum representation while expanding our federal court litigation capabilities. We believe our clients deserve exceptional advocacy, and our attorneys deserve the support necessary to provide it.

Our culture is grounded in humility, accountability, teamwork, and service. Attorneys regularly collaborate on strategy, support one another through difficult cases, and continuously develop their skills. We fight hard for our clients, and we do the same for each other.

Job Type: Full-time

Pay: $100,000.00 - $250,000.00 per year

Benefits:

401(k) matching
Paid time off
Professional development assistance
Retirement plan

Application Question(s):

How many EOIR merit/individual hearings have you had in the past 6 months?
Are you licensed and in good standing with a U.S. state bar?
Describe any federal district court or circuit court experience you have, or your interest in developing that experience. ("None yet" is a perfectly acceptable answer.)

licensed immigration attorney: 4 years (Required)

Location:

Phoenix, AZ 85017 (Required)

Work Location: Hybrid remote in Phoenix, AZ 85017
