About the Opportunity

We're launching a humanitarian immigration firm in Houston this fall, backed by investors from two of Colombia's top-ranked law firms (ranked among Colombia's top 20 by revenue, recognized by Chambers & Partners and Legal 500). The model is built so that one attorney stands at the center of the practice—not an associate among many, but the legal face of the entire firm, with real investment behind building that person's name and reputation in the Houston immigration bar. Every part of the operation—marketing, technology, client intake, case support—exists to support that one person's practice and profile. This is a unique opportunity to join a firm at its founding stage with an entrepreneurial, build-it-yourself mindset.

Practice Areas

  • Removal Defense (primary focus)
  • VAWA
  • T-Visa
  • Asylum

Requirements

  • Licensed to practice law in Texas
  • 2–3 years of experience in humanitarian immigration and/or removal defense (EOIR) strongly preferred
  • Fluent Spanish (required)
  • Latino background / cultural connection to the immigrant community strongly preferred
  • Comfortable with an entrepreneurial, build-it-yourself mindset

Timeline

Onboarding expected mid-September 2026 (approximately Sept 15–20), with full operations launching October 2026.
