De Wit Immigration Law P.A.Remote

Posted 2 days ago

Description

De Wit Immigration Law is hiring a bilingual (English/Spanish) Legal Assistant to support our attorneys and paralegals remotely. You will work on real cases for investors and professionals from around the world who are building their careers and companies in the United States.


This role offers more than document handling. You will be the primary point of contact for our active clients and learn how business immigration cases move from consultation to approval. If you have relevant experience or are talented and motivated to learn, we will teach you the ins and outs of business immigration and immigration-related federal litigation practice.


This is a remote position for candidates based in Latin America. You will join our team as an international independent contractor. Compensation is $1,200 to $2,400 monthly (USD), depending on experience.


About our firm: De Wit Immigration Law is a Miami-based firm focused on business immigration and federal immigration litigation. We are deliberately low-volume: we take fewer cases and do them exceptionally well, and our reputation reflects it. We use technology to work efficiently, and we reward ownership and results, empowering our team to grow as professionals. Our team is hybrid, with members in Miami, Latin America, and Europe, and this role joins our remote team.


What you will do: Serve as a primary point of contact for our active clients, in English and Spanish. Prepare and organize immigration filings: forms, support letters, and supporting evidence. Communicate with clients to gather information and provide case updates. Maintain client files and our case management system, and track deadlines on assigned cases. Schedule appointments and agency interviews. Conduct basic legal research under attorney supervision. Handle incoming and outgoing case correspondence and routine inquiries. Coordinate billing matters with our administrative team and support internal projects.


Qualifications: you are fully fluent in English and Spanish, spoken and written — this is required. You write clearly and communicate confidently with clients. You are organized, manage your time well, and meet deadlines with close attention to detail. You work well independently in a remote team. You are comfortable learning new software and tools. A bachelor's or associate's degree helps, and law-firm experience is a plus, but strong administrative skills and clear motivation to learn count just as much.


Benefits: This is an international independent-contractor engagement. 15 days of PTO per year, 10 paid holidays, and a paid day off on your birthday. Compensation in US dollars, paid reliably on a biweekly schedule. Opportunities for professional development and growth with a team that promotes ownership.


HOW TO APPLY: To be considered, please complete our application here: https://screenroom-production.up.railway.app/job?role=legal-assistant-remote — the application includes a short writing exercise and an attention-to-detail test, and it asks for your resume, a cover letter, and a one-minute introduction video. Please set aside about an hour. Applications completed through our portal are the ones our review team evaluates.
