Immigration Attorney (Removal Defense) Build My Great Team Hollywood, FL Job Details Full-time $100,000 - $150,000 a year 11 hours ago Benefits Dental insurance Paid time off Vision insurance 401(k) matching Qualifications Legal advocacy Spanish Immigration law Working with immigrant populations Serving clients Immigration case experience Writing skills Collaborating with government agencies English Bar Full Job Description Hollywood, Florida | Full-Time | In-Office (5 days on site) $100,000 to $150,000 DOE | 20% Origination Credit | Established Removal Defense Practice | Full Docket Day One Five years of removal defense, fully bilingual in Spanish and English, and ready for a firm that will invest in you? Base is $100,000 to $150,000 depending on experience, plus a 20% origination credit on every client you bring through the door. The Law Offices of Robert M. Bell, P.A. is a Hollywood, Florida firm handling family-based, humanitarian, and removal defense immigration matters for clients across South Florida. The firm has built its reputation on professionalism, integrity, and exceptional client service, and it takes the hard cases and sees them through. This is a long-term platform role, not a stepping stone. You inherit a live docket, you are the attorney of record from day one, and you have room to build a client base of your own with the firm's name and support behind you. About the Role You will own removal defense matters end to end. Expect a full docket across the detained and non-detained calendars: master calendar hearings, individual hearings, and bond hearings, plus the motion practice and relief filings that go with them. You will also handle USCIS interviews and consultations with prospective clients. From day one you are the attorney of record on your cases, with senior counsel and a support team available, not a second chair waiting for work. Business development is welcome, not required. Any client you originate carries a 20% origination credit paid on top of your base, and because consultations with prospective clients are already part of the role, the pipeline to build from is there on day one. Key Responsibilities Represent individuals in removal proceedings in both detained and non-detained settings Attend master calendar hearings, individual hearings, and bond hearings Prepare and file motions to reopen, motions to terminate, motions for bond, and motions to continue Prepare and file applications for relief including asylum, adjustment of status, waivers, and cancellation of removal Represent clients at USCIS interviews Conduct legal research and draft legal briefs Maintain clear and consistent communication with clients and government agencies Provide consultations to prospective clients Requirements Experience and background: Minimum 5 years of hands-on removal defense experience. Strong legal writing, research, and analytical skills, with demonstrated courtroom advocacy in immigration court
