Are you an immigration attorney looking for the path to freedom?
In typical attorney positions, it is easy to get lost in the grind and to lose sight of why you are doing what you’re doing and who you’re helping. It can also be challenging to see your path forward as an attorney. You may have been bombarded with work to get done on deadline leaving no time for advancement or life outside of work. There may have been little opportunity to work one on one with a mentor to talk through case strategy or best practices. That’s not the case here….
What if you could balance the attorney work with your lifestyle and bigger goals while also changing clients’ lives? Wouldn’t it be nice to work in a modern work environment where you have autonomy and have the mentorship of a senior attorney as your progress along your career track?
