“May you live in interesting times.” For immigration lawyers, that old proverb is now a reality. Ever since the start of the second Trump administration, immigration lawyers have been busier than ever.
Whether it is dealing with Immigration and Customs Enforcement raids, deportations, executive orders slowing down the visa process, limiting birthright citizenship, rescinding Obama- and Biden-era immigration policies, or nervous clients worried about what the new regime might mean for them, immigration lawyers have plenty on their plates.
Technology, particularly generative artificial intelligence, can help with some of that increased workload.
In this episode of the Legal Rebels Podcast, Greg Siskind, an immigration lawyer and a tech enthusiast, talks to the ABA Journal’s Victor Li. They talk about how tech can help immigration lawyers work more efficiently, as well as just how much has changed in the immigration landscape since January.
Siskind is a founding partner at the law firm Siskind Susser and a co-founder of Visalaw.ai, a tech company that creates AI-powered software for immigration lawyers. He is also a 2024 ABA Journal Legal Rebel.
