Client Communication
Send proactive case status updates to clients at least every 60 days, using firm-approved templates

Case Review
Review every assigned matter on a recurring schedule, with a documented review at least once every 30 days
Interdepartmental Coordination
Work with Legal, Docket, Retention, Finance, and Interpreter teams to keep cases moving
What Were Looking For
Required
Minimum 3 years of immigration paralegal or case management experience (internal Konare Law experience in a related role counts toward this)
Demonstrated fluency with MyCase
Working knowledge of USCIS filing types, receipt notice interpretation, and portal navigation
Strong written and verbal communication skills clear, warm, client-facing, free of legal opinion
Comfort with checklist-driven, documentation-heavy workflows
Ability to work independently within clearly defined authority limits
Nice to Have
Bilingual (English + Spanish preferred)
Prior experience with NVC follow-up procedures
Experience with client de-escalation and difficult-conversation protocols
