Draft substantive motions for post-conviction relief/vacaturs based on legal and constitutional invalidity (e.g., ineffective assistance of counsel / failure to advise under Padilla) and prepare waiver packages (INA § 212(h), § 212(c), EOIR cancellation of removal). • Humanitarian & Family Filings: Handle affirmative and defensive Asylum cases, USCIS Asylum Office interviews, immediate relative petitions (I-130, I-485), and consular processing. • INA Section 245(i) Adjustments: Independently evaluate grandfathering eligibility (pre-April 30, 2001 filings), compile requisite physical presence proof, and prepare complete Form I-485 Supplement A packages. • Business & Employment Petitions: Draft and assemble EB-2 (National Interest Waiver / NIW), EB-3, and L-1 (intracompany transferee) filings. • Complex Responses: Draft comprehensive, persuasive legal briefs, exhibit indexes, and robust responses to Requests for Evidence (RFEs), Notices of Intent to Deny (NOIDs), and EOIR motions.
