Get the Immigration Case Support You Need—Without Adding Another Employee

Enlaze provides Immigration Case Support for Law Firms that need help with selected matters. Your firm can assign individual cases based on current capacity, define the preparation scope in advance, and pay for the level of support selected for that matter.

Multi-Step Review Before the Case Returns to Your Firm
Preparation work moves through checklist, internal, and supervisory review before your attorney completes the final legal review.

Assigned case work follows defined confidentiality, access, supervision, and information-handling procedures.

Choose the preparation scope required for each matter without committing to a monthly staffing plan.

Flexible Capacity for Immigration Practices
Flexible Support for Changing Immigration Caseloads
Add preparation capacity when specific matters, temporary surges, or internal backlogs require additional support.
Immigration caseloads do not always grow in a predictable way. A sudden increase in new matters, overlapping deadlines, temporary staff leave, or document-heavy cases can create more preparation work than the internal team can comfortably absorb.

- Temporary Surges
- Preparation Backlogs
- Bilingual Case Needs
When Per-Case Support May Fit
Use flexible preparation capacity when a specific operational need does not require an immediate recurring staffing arrangement.

- A backlog of forms and supporting documents
- A case requiring extensive Spanish-language communication
- A firm that does not need another full-time team member
- A solo or small firm testing outsourcing
- A growing practice that needs flexible preparation capacity
Flexible preparation can help solo and small law firms test outsourcing, support growing law firms during periods of expansion, and give immigration law firms added capacity for selected matters.
