How accurate is Flock?

Flock's QA checks are based on objective, verifiable rules — prevailing wage tables, form edition currency, document completeness requirements. These are not judgment calls — they are facts the system checks deterministically. For drafting and documentation, every output is flagged for attorney review. Flock does not produce final work product. It produces reviewed work product.

What happens if Flock misses something?

Flock is a tool that supports attorney review — it does not replace it. Every output requires attorney sign-off before it is used. If an issue passes through the QA layer and an attorney does not catch it on review, the responsibility sits where it always has — with the attorney. We work continuously to improve check coverage. Known failure patterns are added to the check library as they are identified.

Does Flock work for practice areas beyond immigration?

Yes. Immigration is the first area with full agent coverage. Family law, estate planning, criminal defense, real estate, and employment law are in development. Each practice area gets purpose-built context — not a relabelled general model.

What changed with the August 2025 USCIS guidance?

USCIS officers can now deny family-based petitions without first issuing a Request for Evidence or Notice of Intent to Deny. Previously, most documentation gaps would trigger a correction opportunity. That safety net is gone. For applicants without legal status, a denial can now lead directly to removal proceedings. Flock's QA layer is designed for this environment — every check runs before the petition leaves your office.

Can Flock calculate physical presence for N-400 applications?

Yes. The QA agent validates total days present in the U.S. against the 913-day requirement (5-year track) or 548-day requirement (3-year marriage track), flags trips over 6 months that may break continuous residence, and checks that the applicant meets the 3-month district residency requirement.

Does Flock check I-864 income against current poverty guidelines?

Yes. The QA agent uses the current HHS federal poverty guidelines and calculates income eligibility based on actual household size — including dependents and prior I-864 obligations that most attorneys forget to count.

Does Flock replace my case management system?

No. Flock connects alongside Clio, INSZoom, Docketwise, or whatever you use today. No migration required. It handles the intelligence layer and exports clean files back to your existing system.

Is client data secure?

Yes. Data is encrypted in transit and at rest. Flock operates under a Data Processing Agreement. We do not train on client data. Attorney-client privilege architecture is maintained throughout.

What happens when a form edition changes?

Flock updates automatically. You will never file on a superseded edition. Form currency is maintained as a system responsibility, not yours.
