The "Invoice Overload" Problem
Manual invoice entry delays client billing for asylum and visa cases, often extending AOS and I-485 processing timelines by 5-7 days
Compliance risks from untracked changes in retainer agreements and fee schedules, exposing firms to ABA Model Rule 1.5 violations
Time lost reconciling expenses against fluctuating USCIS filing fees, such as the recent 20% increase for Form I-130 petitions
Error-prone data transfer between case management systems like Clio and accounting platforms like QuickBooks
Overlooked billable hours from pro bono work under IOLTA guidelines and deferred payments for contingent fee arrangements
Month-end close bottlenecks amid peak immigration application seasons, such as the April rush for H-1B lottery filings

What Makes Us Different:
Quantifiable Gains for Your Firm
Reclaim Billable Time
Reclaim Billable Time: Our automation captures overlooked hours from consultations and document prep for EB-5 investor visas, adding up to 15 hours weekly back to client-facing work. Firms report a 25% increase in realized billables, directly impacting revenue without extending office hours, with one mid-sized firm recovering $75,000 in annual unbilled time.
Accelerate Cash Flow
Accelerate Cash Flow: Reduce invoice processing from days to minutes for family-based petitions, with AI predicting payment delays based on client histories from prior I-751 renewals. This cuts days sales outstanding by 40%, ensuring steady revenue streams even during slow seasons like post-holiday filing lulls, improving working capital by 30% in the first year.
Fortify Compliance
Fortify Compliance: Built-in safeguards audit every transaction against HIPAA, GLBA, and state bar rules on trust accounting, minimizing exposure to audits. Legal teams avoid fines averaging $50,000 per violation under SOX-like scrutiny for financial disclosures, while maintaining client trust through transparent, tamper-proof records that support e-discovery in malpractice claims.
What Clients Say
"Before AIQ Labs, our team spent Fridays reconciling invoices for H-1B cap-subject petitions—now it's fully automated, and we've cut errors by half. In the first quarter after implementation, we saved 60 hours and billed an extra $12,000 in deferred fees from lottery winners."

"We were overwhelmed tracking retainers for asylum clients under expedited humanitarian parole rules. Their system not only automates it but flags discrepancies in IOLTA transfers instantly. We achieved ROI within two months, recouping costs through $18,000 in recovered billables—worth every penny for the compliance peace of mind."

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does this automation handle variable fees in immigration cases?
Our custom AI analyzes your fee schedules and case types, such as flat fees for naturalization versus hourly for appeals, automatically adjusting invoices. It pulls from your case management system to apply the correct rates, ensuring accuracy even when USCIS fees change mid-year. This reduces manual overrides by 90%, with built-in notifications for attorney review. We've seen firms cut billing disputes by 70% through this precision, all while maintaining a full audit trail for compliance.
Is the system compliant with legal data privacy regulations?
Absolutely. We design with GDPR, HIPAA, and ABA rules in mind, using enterprise-grade encryption and role-based access controls. Data at rest and in transit is protected, with automated redaction of sensitive details like A-numbers. Unlike generic tools, our solution includes customizable compliance templates for immigration-specific needs, like secure handling of refugee status documents. Post-deployment, we conduct quarterly security audits to keep you audit-ready.
What if we already use billing software like Clio?
We specialize in deep, two-way integrations with platforms like Clio, PracticePanther, or TimeSolv. Our AI overlays on top, automating data flow without disrupting your setup—think invoice generation triggered by case status updates. No more duplicate entries; everything syncs in real-time. For a mid-sized firm, this typically saves 12 hours weekly, and we provide migration support if needed, ensuring zero data loss during setup.
How long does implementation take for a firm our size?
For immigration practices with 10-50 attorneys, full deployment takes 4-6 weeks, starting with a one-week discovery phase to map your workflows. We prioritize quick wins, like automating initial invoice capture, so benefits start immediately. Unlike rigid SaaS rollouts, our custom approach minimizes disruption—your team trains in under a day via interactive sessions. We've deployed for similar firms during busy seasons without missing a billing cycle.
What kind of ROI can we expect?
Expect a 3-5x ROI within the first year, based on benchmarks from our legal clients. Time savings alone—15-20 hours per admin per week—translate to $30,000+ in recovered billables for a 20-person firm at $200/hour rates. Add reduced errors (saving $10,000 in potential refunds) and faster collections (improving cash flow by 35%). We track these metrics via your dashboard, adjusting the system to maximize returns tailored to your caseload.
Can it handle pro bono and sliding-scale billing?
Yes, our AI accommodates complex structures like pro bono tracking or income-based fees for DACA renewals. It categorizes entries automatically, generating separate reports for grant funding or IOLTA compliance. This ensures nothing slips through, with alerts for mismatched entries. One client reduced pro bono admin time from 8 hours to 1 per week, freeing resources for more cases while maintaining precise records for tax and bar reporting.
