## Pricing

## Key features

- **Contacts, calendar and tasks:** The vendor's comparison table lists contact management, task management, and legal calendaring with court rules among the features of its practice management line.
- **Documents and email:** CARET says its products build on Microsoft Office 365 so they connect with a firm's email and calendar, and the comparison table lists built-in email management.
- **Billing:** The comparison table lists flat-fee and contingency billing, consolidated invoices, split billing, rate cards and LEDES billing. The table does not say which apply to Amicus Attorney.
- **Client portal:** A portal for secure client communication appears in the comparison table. The vendor's 2016 release notice describes an Amicus client portal with custom fields for matter opening and data collection.
- **Time tracking on mobile:** CARET says users can track billable time against clients and cases with its mobile apps.

## Good for

- Firms that want a quoted price and a demo before committing

## Worth knowing

- Amicus Attorney is one of three CARET products. The comparison table lists some features, such as data migration services, for CARET Legal only.
- The pages read do not say which platforms Amicus Attorney runs on, beyond general references to cloud access and mobile apps.
- There is a free trial button for CARET Legal but only a demo request for Amicus Attorney.

## Keep it, or make your own?

**Keep it.** The plain part of Amicus Attorney you could make: case management, calendar, time tracking, invoicing and documents. What surrounds it you could not. The 0 things listed below take a company, not a weekend. That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 19 of the 35 other law practice software grade higher.

- You could make: Case management, calendar, time tracking, invoicing and documents: an app builder makes these well.
