Legal Writer – $50,000 – $60,000 a year

Waypoint Immigration USA is a business immigration firm focused on providing comprehensive legal services to individual employees and their families in the United States. We do not represent companies, only individuals. For decades, the business immigration sector has been dominated by corporate firms that control individuals’ immigration processes. Employees often do not have access to personal legal counsel in these employer-driven arrangements. We believe that every immigrant deserves to have their own representation to ensure their interests are advanced. There is no substitute for having an attorney advocating solely for the individual in the complex world of immigration law. As a rapidly growing firm ready to expand into this underserved market, we seek experienced and knowledgeable employees who love our mission, are ready to jump into employee-side representation fully, and want to help individual immigrants achieve their dreams. We expect growth opportunities to be abundant in the upcoming years. Come join our team at this exciting time!
