Here's What We're Looking For

Nolo, the oldest and foremost publisher of self-help legal books and software for consumers, and Internet Brands, a leader in online publishing for vertical markets, are seeking writers with a strong legal background to contribute well-written, informative articles on immigration law.

These articles will require in-depth, working knowledge of immigration issues, statutes, regulations, and procedural matters. Writers will need to draw on interactions with immigration clients and the U.S. immigration authorities, and to translate this into plain English for a general audience.

Current or very-recent practice of immigration law is required -- recent law grads or lawyers just entering immigration practice will, unfortunately, not be considered. Seriously.

This is a 100% freelance, telecommuting position. Assignments, writing, editing, and submissions are all handled through our online system. All you need is a computer, Internet access, and the ability to deliver clean, concise copy on a variety of immigration law topics.

Requirements include:

• Ability to write in a professional yet conversational tone.
• Originality; able to present immigration-law matters in a way that doesn't rehash what readers will find on the USCIS or similar sites.
• Deep and broad experience in the immigration law field. (Lawyers only; sorry, no paralegals or students.)
• No professional disciplinary history.
• Strong research and fact-checking skills.
• Strict attention to detail and accuracy.

Pay is on a flat-fee basis, and varies based on the length and complexity of each assignment. The range is from $60 to $125 per article.

If you choose to apply, please check your spam filter for follow-up correspondence from Internet Brands.

Here's a chance to turn your immigration legal experience into insights and examples that will help others. U.S. immigration law can never be simplified, but it can be clarified.
