Vacancy caducado!

Equivity is looking for a part-time virtual paralegal with recent experience supporting attorneys in drafting, assembling and filing business and employment-based immigrant and non-immigrant petitions and applications, with the ability to meet deadlines, and a strong substantive understanding of legal requirements and supporting documentation for business immigration filings. We are looking for paralegals with at least three years of experience in immigration law, including drafting petitions, preparing forms, drafting cover letters and support letters, and gathering and organizing other supporting documents. If you are an expert in this area, have previously assisted attorneys remotely, and have excellent writing skills, we want to hear from you!

We are currently seeking a virtual paralegal who has recently (within the last six months) worked in an immigration law firm specializing in drafting business and employment-based immigrant and non-immigrant petitions and applications. You should be able to prepare immigration forms for Consular Processing, NVC and USCIS, draft correspondence, draft and compile petitions, complete labor certifications, monitor case statuses, and create and update standard immigration questionnaires. You must be familiar with preparing business and employment-based immigrant and non-immigrant petitions and applications, including H1Bs, L1As, L1Bs, and TNs, as well as be able to draft O and EB petitions as a technical writer.

In addition to these requirements, we are looking for a paralegal that is detail-oriented, proactive, extremely organized, and possesses strong case management and writing skills. The ideal candidate will be very technologically adept and have excellent Word and Adobe skills. In addition, the candidate should have experience working with cloud-based practice management and immigration software.
