Introduction
AI or no AI? That’s no longer the question for immigration law firms.
Chances are—most software you use in your practice these days has incorporated artificial intelligence. It’s been working behind the scenes in legal workflows for decades. Over the last year, it has become much less discreet.
It seems every application you log into has a new AI icon flashing at you. And everywhere we turn, someone is asking:
AI is becoming such an important topic among immigration law firms that AILA made it a key theme at this year’s Technology and Innovation Summit and even launched a live online course on AI in Immigration Law.
If you’re not yet sold on the benefits of using AI in your work, we’re not here to convince you. The fact is—AI can save immigration attorneys a ton of time while improving accuracy, logic, client communications, and more.
We do want to show you some real-world ways that immigration attorneys are using AI in their practices to drive better outcomes.

7 ways immigration attorneys are using AI
It’s pretty common for AI skeptics to get hooked once they witness the practicality of artificial intelligence in action.
When we talk about AI in immigration law, we’re not talking about robotic court clerks straight out of some sci-fi movie. We’re referring to everyday tasks that typically eat up countless hours for attorneys, caseworkers, and legal assistants.
Immigration law firms are starting to embrace AI to do things like:
There are even tools on the horizon that will generate your entire petition package and review it for accuracy before submitting it to the courts.
We’re not suggesting that you give over your entire case logic to artificial intelligence. There’s plenty of proof about the importance of caution when it comes to AI in immigration law.
However, there are some secure and reliable solutions available to help make your workflows faster and easier.
