Which one is for you

Pick Eve if

  • Fits if you run a plaintiff firm and want AI drafts of demands and medical overviews
  • Works for firms that already have a case system and need an add-on

Look elsewhere if

  • Skip it if you want case management or billing, since it has neither
  • Not for you if you need a price to plan with, as none is published
  • Skip it if you want to try it yourself, because buyers book a call or demo
  • Watch out: the integrations page could not be read, so what it connects to is unconfirmed
  • Watch out: it is aimed at plaintiff work, not defence or general practice

Pick Filevine if

  • Fits if your firm runs heavy caseloads, such as personal injury or mass torts
  • Works for prosecutors, public defenders and other government legal offices

Look elsewhere if

  • Skip it if you want a price before a demo, as every package is quoted by the sales team
  • Watch out: intake, depositions and signatures are separate packages, and analytics, court deadline rules and the client portal are extensions
  • Not for you if you want to try case management first, since the free LOIS Explore trial is AI only and closed to existing customers
  • Not for you if you'd rather set it up yourself, as setup runs through Filevine's certified partners
  • Skip it if you need phone apps, as the listing has it as web only

How we grade them

1.4GPAEveWeak2.0GPAFilevineFair
Value for money
CNo price is published, and buyers book a call, so it sits in the middle.
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 is listed; access is by scheduled call.
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
DIt drafts and summarises but holds no billing, trust accounting or general case records, so a firm needs another system alongside it.
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 an AI layer for casework needs connecting to your files and checking.
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
CWeb only, and the integrations page could not be read, so which systems it syncs with is unconfirmed.
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.

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.
