Why consistent voice matters in immigration drafting

Consistency is not cosmetic—it is evidentiary. For employment-based petitions and RFEs, firms must present facts, analysis, and exhibits in a uniform structure and tone across attorneys and offices. Parley is built to encode that firm voice so every draft aligns with your standards while keeping attorneys firmly in the loop. Parley’s platform emphasizes customizable outputs that match firm branding and voice and works directly where attorneys draft today. See the overview on the Parley site and product profile for details on Word integration and style customization. Parley website, Legal Technology Hub: Parley profile.

How Parley learns your style inside Microsoft Word

Parley operates where immigration lawyers already work—Microsoft Word—so style adaptation fits naturally into daily drafting.

Generate and insert paragraphs directly in your open brief or letter with the Word add‑in, rather than copy/paste from a web tool. Legal Technology Hub: Parley profile

Evidence-anchored writing, not generic text

Parley’s drafting engine pulls from source‑of‑truth documents and integrates reference quotes into your drafts, so persuasion is grounded in client evidence rather than boilerplate. This keeps the style consistent and factual. About Parley
