The Role

As a Corporate Practice Immigration Paralegal at Manifest, you’ll partner closely with one of our attorneys to execute high-volume, high-quality immigration work for corporate clients. You’ll manage a substantial caseload, drive end-to-end case preparation, and serve as a confident, reliable point of contact for HR teams and employees.

You should bring deep hands-on experience across PERMs and H-1Bs, with additional exposure to L-1s, E visas, and extraordinary ability cases preferred. You’ll be trusted to own workflow, communicate directly with corporate stakeholders, and deliver consistent accuracy in a fast-moving environment.

What You’ll Do

• Case preparation: Lead PERM and H-1B processes from intake to filing, coordinating closely with HR, managers, and foreign nationals. Support additional nonimmigrant and immigrant categories such as L-1, E-1/E-2, and extraordinary ability visas (EB-1A, O-1, EB-2 NIW) as needed.

• Document collection & evidence gathering: Guide clients through the process of gathering required evidence, clearly, efficiently, and with strong follow-through. Ensure all supporting documents are complete, accurate, and compliant with USCIS and DOL requirements.

• Drafting & case assembly: Prepare USCIS forms, and draft clean, persuasive, well-organized case materials tailored to each petition type.

• Client communication: Serve as a professional, friendly, and steady point of contact for corporate HR partners and foreign national employees. Handle updates, expectations-setting, and process explanations with clarity and confidence.

• Case management & organization: Track deadlines, manage timelines, and keep a large volume of matters moving simultaneously. Maintain meticulous records and ensure nothing falls through the cracks.

• Attorney partnership: Work closely with your supervising attorney, anticipating needs, aligning on preferences, and enabling them to focus on higher-level legal strategy.
