# Practice areas

> The Skill library Parley ships with, organized by practice area.

Parley supports any legal practitioner. Skills are the reusable instructions behind the work Parley produces, and they are configurable. Hand Parley a sample document and it writes the Skill for you.

Parley ships with a large library out of the box so your team has something to run from day one. Open a Project and select a Skill from **Run Skill**, or describe the task in chat and Parley applies the matching Skill on its own. Each one works from the files already in the Project.

### Forms and filing support

Parley fills the full set of USCIS and EOIR forms, updated daily as new editions are published. Form Skills also write back a Project Note listing the evidence still missing and any facts the attorney should confirm.
