Look elsewhere if
- Pricey if you add staff: $90 a user a month on Basic, $130 on Pro, $160 on Advanced
- Skip it if you practise anything but personal injury, since the vendor points other firms to MyCase
- Tight if you need intake or texting on Basic, as both start at Pro
- Watch out: e-signature is an add-on on every plan, and API access needs Advanced

How we grade them
| 1.6GPACASEpeerWeak | 2.0GPAFilevineFair | |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | DBasic is $90 per user a month, which is where the dearest tenth of law-practice tools starts against a $59 middle, and the useful extras sit on Pro at $130. | CNo price is published. Filevine gives a price only on a sales call, after a demo, and intake, depositions and signatures are separate packages on that quote. |
| Free plan and trial | FNo free plan and no trial; the page offers a demo with no card. | DThe only free thing is LOIS Explore, a no-card trial of the AI research and drafting. It leaves out case management and is closed to existing customers, so the main product can't be tried before a demo. |
| Features | CCase tracking, treatment, liens, settlements and a client portal are there, but e-signature is an add-on, intake and texting start at Pro, and it is built for personal injury only. | CMatters, unlimited documents, document assembly, LOIS AI, deposition tools, intake, timekeeping, LEDES billing and payments. The gaps the listing shows: no trust ledger on record, and analytics, court deadline rules and the client portal are paid extensions. |
| Ease of use | CNo store rating is on record, and a case system needs your matters, stages and users set up. | CWe have no store rating on file for it. Setup goes through Filevine's certified implementation partners rather than a sign-up you run yourself, so there's a project before the first matter. |
| Platforms and integrations | BWeb only, with Outlook, Microsoft 365, QuickBooks, Dropbox, LawPay, Zapier and EvenUp links. No native mobile app is listed, and API access needs Advanced. | BWeb, with Outlook, Word, Gmail, Zoom, Dialpad, Workato and Domo. The listing has no desktop or phone apps, so away from a browser it can't follow you. |
| Best for | personal injury firms tracking cases and treatment | firms with heavy caseloads, like personal injury |

How this page was made
- The verdict at the top follows a fixed rule. When both tools are in the same category and either is in our top three for it, the verdict follows that ranking: the higher-placed tool is our pick. The top three weigh who each tool suits as well as its grades, so a pick can go against the GPA. Otherwise the page does not pick one and says which grades higher: the higher GPA first; on a tie, the one with a free plan, then the one that starts cheaper in dollars a month, counted the same way for both; if they are still level, what the choice depends on.
- The grades are our own, from each tool’s review or report card. The GPA is their average.
- Prices, plans and platforms come from each tool’s listing. The table above says where each price was read and when.
- The differences and the answers to the questions are worked out from those listings.
