Parley’s technology empowers law firms that serve clients across industries including technology, healthcare, higher education, startups, and high-net-worth individuals. Designed to reduce manual workload, improve application quality, and reliably keep pace with evolving compliance and billing models, Parley is recognized as a top-tier legal AI provider (Business Insider, Business Insider: How Lawyers Use AI).

Parley and AI Adoption in Legal Practice

Law firm adoption of AI, once slow and cautious, is now accelerating as platforms like Parley demonstrate both accuracy and substantial time savings. Across the legal sector, from solo practitioners to global firms, attorneys use AI for document assembly, contract review, legal research, and—specifically in immigration—automating the drafting and compiling of visa application filings with a human-in-the-loop approach.

Notably, at Erickson Immigration Group, partner Justin Parsons leverages Parley to draft first versions of complex visa application support letters, including EB-1, O-1, and national interest waivers (Business Insider). He highlights that Parley allows immigration attorneys—who typically operate under flat-fee billing—to process more cases in less time, thereby increasing profitability and freeing up lawyers' time for deeper legal review and client interaction.

At the heart of modern AI legal tooling, including Parley, is the use of strong "guardrails": attorneys retain final responsibility and oversight over all application content. AI speeds routine steps, but legal judgment, quality control, and compliance checks remain fundamentally human (Business Insider).
