Immigration Law Jobs – Being An Immigration Lawyer

Immigration law jobs come in a few varieties, as immigration lawyer Christina Lee tells us in this interview exploring careers for lawyers. Being a lawyer practicing immigration law can involve working with employers on employment-based immigration issues or working with families on removal defense and family-based immigration law issues.

Christina’s law practice involves both aspects of immigration law, although she tells us that it’s common to practice in one area or the other. This video explores law jobs focused on removal defense and family-based immigration law. Christina explains that
these law jobs are part counseling (petitioning to help families come to or stay in the United States) and part litigation careers (since removal defense involves going to court and fighting to help clients stay in the United States).

Whether you’re in law school, wondering whether you should go to law school or exploring jobs to do with a law degree, you may want to check out immigration law jobs. In the full interview at JDCOT, Christina tells host Marc Luber why immigration law is a rewarding path, how to break in to immigration law jobs and explains a typical day, what skills and personality types best fit these careers for lawyers, and how to succeed.
