Revenue model

1. Legal Services (via Member Firms): ABIL member firms generate revenue by providing legal immigration services to corporate clients and individuals. Fees are billed for legal counsel, case representation, compliance advisory, litigation, and related immigration matters. ABIL as an organization functions as a professional network and thought leadership aggregator for its member firms rather than billing clients directly.
