As immigration law finds its way deeper into the national discourse, more law firms are developing their own legal technology platforms designed specifically to bolster their immigration law practices. Like law firm-developed compliance apps, these new immigration tools aim to streamline some immigration law’s intricacy and document-heavy processes to help firms automate workflows, grow their client base, and better serve the clients they have.

In early 2018, for instance, Littler Mendelson developed web questionnaire Travel Ban Navigator, with the assistance of AI automation company Neota Logic, to assess if an employee’s travel to certain countries was impacted by President Donald Trump’s travel ban.
