Exceptional Mentorship. Meaningful Work. Real Opportunities to Grow.
At Cohen Immigration Law Group, P.C., we believe that great legal professionals are developed through challenging work, thoughtful mentorship, and a commitment to excellence.
Led by Raisa Cohen, a retired U.S. Immigration Judge and former DHS prosecutor, our firm offers a unique opportunity to learn immigration law from someone who has experienced the system from multiple perspectives.
We are building a team of talented, driven, and compassionate professionals who want more than just a job. We want people who are curious, take pride in their work, embrace responsibility, and are motivated to become exceptional at what they do.
Whether you are an experienced immigration attorney, a paralegal, an LL.M. graduate, a foreign-trained legal professional, or someone pursuing a career in immigration law, we offer an environment where your ideas matter, your contributions have an impact, and your professional growth is important.
Why Work With Us?
1. Learn From a Former Immigration Judge
Few immigration law firms offer the opportunity to work directly with a former Immigration Judge who also served as a DHS prosecutor.
At our firm, you will gain valuable insight into how immigration cases are evaluated, how legal arguments are developed, and what makes advocacy effective.
We believe mentorship goes beyond answering questions. It means helping our team develop stronger legal judgment, recognize important issues, think critically, and approach complex cases with confidence.
2. Work on Challenging, Meaningful Cases
Immigration law is about much more than forms and filings. The work we do can determine whether families remain together, whether individuals find protection, and whether people have the opportunity to build new lives.
Our practice handles a broad range of immigration matters, including:
- Removal defense, asylum, withholding of removal, and CAT protection
- Complex USCIS petitions, adjustment of status, and waivers
- Motions to reopen, reconsider, and terminate
- BIA appeals and federal immigration litigation
- Habeas corpus petitions, mandamus actions, and Administrative Procedure Act litigation
- Family-based immigration and humanitarian relief
You will have opportunities to develop substantive expertise, contribute to case preparation and strategy, and see how your work directly affects the people we represent.
3. Grow Professionally and Personally
We want our team members to become more knowledgeable, capable, and confident over time.
We value continuous learning, constructive feedback, professional development, and the willingness to take on new challenges.
As your skills and experience grow, so can your responsibilities.
We welcome ambitious professionals who want to strengthen their legal writing, research, advocacy, case management, leadership, and problem-solving abilities.
4. Be Part of a Modern, Forward-Thinking Law Firm
We believe that exceptional legal work should be supported by modern technology and efficient systems.
Our firm embraces legal technology, automation, and AI-assisted tools to streamline workflows, improve organization, and help our team focus on the work that requires human judgment, creativity, and compassion.
We encourage team members to think critically about how things can be improved, share ideas, and help shape better ways of working.
We are interested not only in where the legal profession is today, but in how it can become better tomorrow.
5. Your Contributions Matter
We believe talented professionals thrive when they are trusted with meaningful responsibilities and given the support to succeed.
At Cohen Immigration Law Group, we value initiative, ownership, collaboration, attention to detail, and accountability.
We encourage our team members to ask thoughtful questions, propose solutions, and take pride in producing excellent work.
You will be part of a team where individual contributions make a difference, and where high standards are matched by opportunities to learn and improve.
6. A Mission That Is Personal
For our founder, immigration law is more than a profession.
Having experienced the journey of a refugee herself, Judge Cohen understands the uncertainty, fear, and hope that accompany the immigration process.
That perspective shapes our firm’s commitment to treating every client with dignity, compassion, and respect.
Our work is demanding because the stakes are real. Behind every case is a person, a family, and a future.
We are looking for people who understand that responsibility and find purpose in meeting it.
