EOIR, USCIS and PACER, watched for you.

On the calendar for the attorney to confirm
PACER charges its own per-page fees on the firm's account. Filing in CM/ECF stays with the attorney.
Planned connections. USCIS offers a Case Status API and a FOIA API to approved developers, with production access after an application review. PACER offers official Authentication and Case Locator APIs. EOIR has no public API, so DuraLex reads ECAS notices and documents. DuraLex is not affiliated with or endorsed by USCIS, the Department of Justice, EOIR or the federal courts; their marks identify the official sources. Names and numbers here are made up. The attorney confirms every changed date.
Deadlines follow the court's rules, not the practice area.
Pick a sample matter in any of eight showcased practice areas. DuraLex pulls the court information, applies that court's rules and builds the calendar, from first hearing to trial. The attorney confirms every computed date.
Made-up names, numbers and dates. Rule references show how each date is checked; the attorney confirms every date before it is final.
Ana Morales has three matters. Nothing gets mixed up.
Each matter keeps its own court, judge, opposing party, attorney and support staff, and every deadline stays tied to its matter.
