Practice Leader - Corporate Immigration - Senior Business Immigration Attorney (B2B)

Manifest Law

23d • $185,000 - $250,000 • Remote

About The Position

Manifest Law is an AI-native corporate immigration firm that combines the scale of a larger firm with boutique-quality client service. Its Manifest OS platform handles operational tasks so attorneys can focus on legal strategy, judgment, and client relationships. The firm emphasizes attorney autonomy, sustainable work, ownership of cases, and the opportunity to help build a modern immigration practice.

The Practice Leader will lead and own Manifest's corporate immigration practice for employer clients, with responsibility for its growth, legal quality, and profitability. The role includes managing enterprise client relationships and large-scale programs, developing business, building and leading a legal team, and using Manifest's AI-powered platform to support performance. Compensation includes a competitive base salary and profit-sharing incentives, with higher incentive rates for self-originated matters than for Manifest-sourced cases.

The role is remote-first and open to candidates in the United States. Candidates outside the United States may also apply, with compensation assessed according to regional models. The stated good-faith base salary range is $185,000–$250,000 USD; actual pay depends on factors including location, experience, education, skills, and role scope. The firm uses AI tools for administrative recruiting support and optional interview transcription; these tools do not make hiring decisions.
