- Train and coach the sales team on immigration law fundamentals.
- Build and maintain talking points, scripts, and reference materials that translate legal concepts into clear, sales-ready language.

- Ensure every representation made to a prospective client during the sales process is legally accurate and ethically sound.
- Partner with the Legal Director to keep sales-facing guidance aligned with current law and firm standards.
- Stay current on immigration laws, regulations, and policy changes and translate what matters for the sales process.
- Work closely with Sales Consultants, Intake, and firm leadership to improve the quality and accuracy of the consultation-to-hire process.
