Benefits & Work Environment
We offer a generous employer-sponsored benefits package and a strong PTO program. We value work-life balance and encourage our employees to take and enjoy their time away from work.
This is a full-time position based in our North San Jose office. During the first 90 days, the position is primarily office-based to allow time to learn our processes, systems, and team.
After 90 days, the position transitions to a 3-day in-office / 2-day work-from-home schedule. Candidates must reside locally and be able to commute to our North San Jose office.
About Our Firm
We are a smaller, established firm with a stable team and a professional, collaborative work environment. Our employees work closely together, and many have built long-term careers with the firm.
Corporate immigration is detailed and deadline-driven work, but it is also very personal. We help companies sponsor talented employees through important stages of their immigration journey, and the work we do can have a meaningful impact on an individual and their family.
Our team takes pride in that. We genuinely enjoy the work we do and the people we help, and we believe that has been an important part of our firm’s long-term success.
For an experienced paralegal who enjoys corporate immigration but prefers a smaller, stable environment with an experienced team around them, this is an opportunity to continue developing professionally while doing meaningful work.
