AILA Member Paralegals

If you are a paralegal of an AILA member, you are eligible to gain access to many AILA research tools and educational opportunities. Non-member paralegals are not eligible.

In order to recognize the important role that paralegals play in a law practice, members' paralegals will now have their own access to AILA.org! This new option guarantees access to all the critical information on AILA.org that paralegals need to support their supervising attorneys, without the attorney needing to share member login credentials. Access includes:

• AILA's Website
  Paralegals will have special searchable access to AILA.org resources, including the most up-to-date immigration news and information, government correspondence, and the latest on AILA activities, products, services, and events.
• Fastcase
  Fastcase provides free access to a comprehensive legal research system containing a full range of federal caselaw and Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA) decisions. It features smarter technology, customized searching, and even a mobile legal research app.
• Message Center
  Provides you with an avenue to ask questions and engage with your peers and AILA members.
• AILA Agora
  Paralegals will receive paralegal pricing on AILA products and services.
