It's user-friendly and packed with amazing features that have helped us achieve a 245% growth rate over the last year. I have been so impressed with MyCase that I became a certified MyCase consultant so I can help other firms experience these game-changing benefits. Pros My favorite features in MyCase are the case management, client management, document management, templates and automation. Cons I don't like that the invoices aren't more customizable and that the billing and invoicing aren't compatible with contingency firms. I also with MyCase would integrate with a VOIP phone system like Ring Central so we can automate some of our calling procedures.

The decisiding factor for our firm was cost. Switched from [Time Matters](https://www.capterra.com/p/228265/Time-Matters/) Cost and the need to update our technology Review Source SM Serenna M. Managing Attorney Law Practice Used the software for: 2+ years ### "I always brag about my case and practice management system." October 26, 2025 5.0 Overall very positive. I was not happy with the sudden price increase but alas the system has proven invaluable. Easy to learn and very user friendly. Very flexible, especially the invoicing aspect of the system. Pros Comprehensive and intuitive platform for case management, billing and practice managment/financial analysis. Very easy to learn and use. Makes invoicing and timekeeping a breeze. Even has useful perks like document e-signing! Cons The cost has gone up significantly...but what hasn't - some of the features such as mycase desktop are useless - if they add to my costs I am not using them and so the company should focus on its core usefullness and not try to replace word or whatever they were trying to do with the internal editing platform. Alternatives considered [Cleo](https://www.capterra.com/p/10030507/Cleo/) Reason for choosing 8am MyCase It seemed the most seamless and offered a generous trial period. Switched from [Cleo Integration Cloud](https://www.capterra.com/p/123016/Cleo/) I was not happy with the platform and it did not offer as many feature or the same ease of use. Review Source RM Robert M. Attorney Legal Services Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Too many hurdles to get started. " October 17, 2025 2.0 This might work if you are a sole practitioner who is starting on day one; for anyone else who of changing over from another system, I suggest looking elsewhere and don’t waste your time. Pros The promise of an all-in-one system. It would have been convenient to ditch two subscriptions (Clio and QuickBooks) in favor of just one; however, that didn’t happen. Cons The inability to start using the software/site without having to wait for, literally, weeks. They require accounting “onboarding” which is two steps, not the one step they promise, and each appointment takes a week to schedule (they only do those on Tuesdays and Thursdays, according to their calendar system). So, I canceled without waiting but they continue to call me for some reason that I don’t care to hear. Alternatives considered [CosmoLex](https://www.capterra.com/p/18931/CosmoLex/) Reason for choosing 8am MyCase I shouldn’t have. That’s the whole point of this review. Switched from [QuickBooks Online](https://www.capterra.com/p/190778/QuickBooks-Online/)[Clio](https://www.capterra.com/p/105428/Clio/) Wanted an all in one system instead of two.

Senior Paralegal Legal Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "MyCase is a great Program for any Law Firm" March 23, 2026 5.0 My overall experience would be a 10 out of 10 experience. I can navigate the website very well, and I did so without any training. The website is user-friendly, which is a good feature because law practices are busy and sometimes formal training is very limited. Pros I love how easy it is to use. Specifically, when uploading documents. The fact that I can just drag documents into the portal and that they load so quickly is very efficient. I have never experienced any issues with the program. MyCase is very good at notifying us of scheduled updates, which makes planning around them effortless. Cons Probably the cost, but compared to other legal programs, I cannot honestly say it's a true con because there are similar programs that are even more expensive. Review Source RN Richard N. Partner Law Practice Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Gets the job done." October 17, 2025 4.0 Overall I have had a good experience with Mycase. It has allowed me to operate and grow my law firm while ensuring a relatively painless experience for my clients through Mycase payments and the client portal. Pros Value for money. Originally it was extremely affordable and still had all the features I needed to run my firm more efficiently. Cons Mycase took a very long time rolling out integrations that Clio had for awhile. This included email integration, etc. I think they've definitely made up ground in that area but it unfortunately comes with a larger price tag.

Review Source BB Benjeman B. Founding Partner Legal Services Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Good File Management Software for the Price for Solo Attorneys" October 20, 2025 5.0 Pretty good for the price. The customer service is usually available, the interface is agreeable and easy to use, the unlimited cloud storage is nice, and I like a lot of the app/integrations like filing straight from the MyCase file. Pros Quick response/implementation to new good ideas for the software. Customer support is pretty good, no complaints. Cons Sometimes software bugs can take a long time to repair. For example, for the longest time when I would print to PDF from MyCase the auto date feature from the MyCase document would show the date as one day ahead. It took quite awhile for MyCase to repair this bug (months) but they eventually fixed it.

Review Source CM Consuelo M. Paralegal and Legal Assistant Legal Services Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Glue that holds everything together for me! " November 5, 2025 5.0 Great. I love the system and feel like it makes organizing my clients and also keeping them updated and informed very easy and it allows me to have the files organized and make sure I stay on top of everything. Pros The interface is very user friendly and has so many options to organize a case and also maintain a great flow of work to make sure nothing falls through the cracks. Cons Sometimes the system glitches but it isn't significant to sway in the direction of not using it. For the most part they are resolve rather quickly. Switched from [Clio](https://www.capterra.com/p/105428/Clio/) Mycase seemed more user friendly and offered more organizational methods. Review Source BL Bryan L. Sole Practitioner Legal Services Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Features and Price" October 21, 2025 5.0 Covers all the aspects I need in firm management and accounting for a reasonable price and offers in-depth resources and one-on-one assistance (with a person!). Pros As a sole practitioner, I need something affordable but that covers multiple facets: client management, case management, bookkeeping, Trust accounting, etc. MyCase handles all of those and is priced reasonably. Cons Just learning a new system. Every system handles things differently, and any switch is going to have a learning curve. Back to Pro - the learning resources are very helpful and you can get one-one-one support.

Switched from [Firm Central](https://www.capterra.com/p/136050/Firm-Central/) Firm Central was discontinued, so I had to select a new system. Review Source CF Charles F. Attorney Law Practice Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Great system, wish they would change the company name though" November 10, 2025 5.0 Overall, it has been a great experience. We have used free trials for other systems and came over from another platform. MyCase has done what we need at a reasonable price. Pros Total intergration with accounting, payment processing, messaging, and calendar fuctions. Having one spot to see the entire client file inclusive of payment history has worked well for us. Any issues with accounting add-on have had quick response times from customer support. Cons My only complaint is the renaming of the company to "8am." It is slightly annoying to see times in my inbox and have to remember that 8am is not a scheduled event but some notice from a case. Hoping they will rebrand to anything else. Alternatives considered [Jubilee](https://www.capterra.com/p/156277/Jubilee-Bankruptcy/)[Smokeball](https://www.capterra.com/p/133656/Smokeball/) Reason for choosing 8am MyCase Accounting integration and ease of use with client portal options. Switched from [Clio](https://www.capterra.com/p/105428/Clio/) at first for the accounting add on, but prefer many of the features. Review Source JL James L. Managing Director and Principal Financial Services Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Great all-in-one Practice Management System" October 29, 2025 5.0 The Customer Support team is amazing. They will use Chat functions to help you solve problems in real-time. I have always received a great response time from them. Pros This practice management system has nearly all of the functionality you need to run a practice. It has billing, invoicing, accounting, case management, tasks, and is also a CRM. It also allows you to track your communications (texts and emails mainly) automatically. I have built all of my activities around MyCase. Cons There are a few things MyCase should consider. First, I think for a large pracitce there is good value for money, but the pricing model is fairly expensive for a solo practitioner. I would suggest a lower pricing tier for one-person practices. Second, it doesn't have client scheduling, which would be very beneficial. Otherwise, it's great. Alternatives considered [Practice Better](https://www.capterra.com/p/159263/Better/) Reason for choosing 8am MyCase All of the necessary functionality was there, including cloud security and privacy. It also has a built-in integration with LawPay for collecting credit and bank payments. Review Source LH Leslee H. Attorney Law Practice Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Give it a try" May 21, 2025 5.0 Our firm's use of MyCase has been wonderful. The support is amazing. Always quick to figure out any issue we have had. Pros MyCase is a simple system. Easy to understand and use. Our firm is mostly older attorneys and none of us have had any issues being able to learn the system. Cons Price. I would love to see a quarterly billing and perhaps a reduced price for small firms. I believe it could be more affordable for the solo and small firm. Alternatives considered [Smokeball](https://www.capterra.com/p/133656/Smokeball/) Reason for choosing 8am MyCase Pricing. For our small firm it gave us the most bang for the buck Switched from [Clio](https://www.capterra.com/p/105428/Clio/) Pricing and Clio was geared for bigger firms. Review Source KB Kathie B. CEO Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Australia salutes 8 am My CASE" October 18, 2025 5.0 Nothing but positive things to say on the software. Being in Australia the maintenance (weekly) is a little frustrating as all the staff end up having to take a forced break we are paying for.... Pros We run a business using this software that is not related to the law industry. We have managed to successfully adapt the software to our needs and would be lost without. I was a little hesitant when the changeover happened and the implementations on the site were adopted but they have improved something I did not believe needed improving. Love it! Cons As we are based in Australia, if we need direction on something that we can not find the answer to via the online help facility, due to the time differences we have to rely on emails. Review Source BA Bita A. Executive Assistant Legal Services Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Excellent Customer Service! " June 11, 2025 5.0 Excellent overall experience using MyCase daily. The platform is reliable, intuitive, and streamlines many of the day-to-day tasks involved in managing legal cases. Features like document sharing, time tracking, and client communication are seamlessly integrated, which saves time and improves efficiency. The calendar and task management tools help keep everything organized and on schedule. MyCase also enhances collaboration among team members, allowing for real-time updates and shared access to important case information. The support team is responsive and helpful whenever issues arise. Overall, it’s a well-designed tool that adds significant value to legal practice management. Pros Customer service agents are very helpful, always going above and beyond to assist with any questions or concerns, providing clear and friendly support that makes resolving issues quick and stress-free Cons The app is not that user-friendly, as its interface can be confusing and difficult to navigate, especially for new users. Some features are hard to find, and the overall design could benefit from improved organization and clearer instructions Review Source NS Niccole S. Paralegal Legal Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Positive Experience" June 3, 2025 4.0 Overall experience is more positive. I would say it does make managing a case much easier than not having MyCase. Pros I like how it helps organize the case file and keeps everything together, including communications. Clients are able to view their case records without asking for copies. I like the text message feature. In general, the time entries/billing are pretty simple, assuming you don't have to split the billing. Then it gets complicated, especially if you don't have the split billing feature. Even then, there are limitations. Cons I don't like that I am unable to send emails directly from MyCase. I have to download documents to send them out to clients or opposing parties. I don't like their split billing process. If I generate an invoice and split it between two people, and one person pays on the invoice and the other does not, I am not able to forward that invoice to the new invoice, and only bill the prior invoice to the one person who didn't pay. I don't enjoy having to reconcile Affirm payments manually, as the option is offered through a specific invoice. If someone applies for the loan, it should be applied automatically to the invoice they applied for. There are times the system glitches, and I am not able to work. Review Source MC MacKenzie C. Paralegal and Admistrative Assistant Law Practice Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Thoughts After Use for 5 Years" October 21, 2025 4.0 I have been using MyCase for 5 years now and am glad to have everything needed for cases in one place. Communication with clients is super easy. Billing is also easy to keep up with. Pros I like the features that are included and the organization of all of the different tabs. It is always easy for clients to navigate on their end as well so I am glad my office is able to provide this platform to them. Cons I wish that there was a feature that allows for new leads to be generated from previous contacts. I also wish that there were more tutorials provided to show how some features can be utilized to streamline processes. Review Source AC Angie C. Administrative Assistant Law Practice Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Keeping it Simple" May 21, 2025 5.0 Overall I am pleased with MyCase and how easy it is to navigate. I like that I can integrate my emails into the program and have it as my central program. Pros I like that everything can be done for our clients using 1 application. From billing to communications and document preparation. Cons I do not like that it is not fully customizable for my likes or needs. I would like to be able to create a dashboard for my needs, not a general need. Review Source KV Kinda V. Managing Attorney Legal Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Efficient Start with Room for Improvement" October 20, 2025 5.0 verall, the 8 a.m. MyCase review felt well organized and easy to navigate. I liked how everything was in one place and the interface made reviewing tasks smooth. However, there were a few areas that could be improved, like task notifications and document template functions, to make the process even more efficient. Pros The 8 a.m. draft review was well structured and clear. The case details were presented in an organized way, the tone remained professional yet approachable, and the action points were concise , making next steps easy to follow. Best Cases Management program Cons While the review was solid overall, I felt the section on follow-up actions and next-step clarity could use more depth. A few items (such as document template issues and support response expectations) seemed under-addressed, which left some ambiguity about ownership and timing. Review Source LH Lydia H. Attorney at Law Law Practice Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Mycase is a good reliable system" March 22, 2026 4.0 I have had mycase since I started my law firm almost 10 years ago and it has been a reliable system for my needs and those of my clients Pros I like ease of use, document management, mycase drive local in computer, calendar, payment management Cons not able to send text messages or communication to clients in Spanish. Not able to send emails and text to clients with progress on case or attached to workflows Review Source JL James L. Paralegal Law Practice Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Good for the money" October 22, 2025 4.0 It is good for the money. I think they should work on some things a little bit better to make it great but it is still the better option out there. Pros I love the ease of use that we have with 8am Mycase. It is everything you need in one cloud based system. It has many great features you can use. To be able to do our invoicing out of Mycase is amazing. We love the fact that payments come in right after invoicing. Mycase usually responds quickly if you are having issues. We would highly recommend Mycase. It is great value for the money. Cons I liked the old setup on how tasks were done on the front page. I could see them better and less clicking. If they have an issue you are out of luck on working. It has been rare in the years that we have had Mycase but it does come up. Review Source MN Murray N. Attorney Law Practice Used the software for: 2+ years ### "MyCase is essential to my practice" November 11, 2025 5.0 I recommend MyCase to every lawyer in private practice. I've incorporated it into CLEs that I have given about practice management. I think I'm it's biggest fan. Pros I have used MyCase for over ten years and I don't know how I got by without it. It helps me manage every aspect of my case management from billing, staying in touch with clients, and scheduling. Cons My complaints are extremely minor and very "inside baseball." There are a couple of formatting issues that I would change and a few reports that I would like to see added. I would like to see a column that allows cases to be sorted by date closed.

It is a wonderful tool in the firm and they constantly bring more services integrated such as service of process. Pros I love how easy make the client communication . It easy to track billing hours and generate clear invoices to clients to provide transparency. It is very appreciate that customer service is always accessible in case of need and the video reference to learn all the things in mycase. Cons It is tricky that documents in firm documents cannot be search as other documents in cases themselves . Review Source DP DeAndrea P. Owner Attorney Law Practice Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Best Investment " May 22, 2025 5.0 It has been amazing. Anytime I have a question I can either call or do the chat feature on the website and I receive immediate help. Not just a response, but an actual resolution. Pros This has been the best investment for my firm. It is easy to communicate with clients and potential clients. It is easy to update information and keep track of time spent on cases. I would highly recommend mycase to anyone in the legal field. Cons The only thing that I do not care for, is if a client changes their phone number, the communication previously had with them via text, does not stay connected to the client's file. Review Source CS Cass S. Attorney Law Practice Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "I am a huge fan of MyCase!" June 7, 2025 5.0 I have used ActionStep and Practice Panther in the past. Hands down, MyCase is my favorite practice management software as an estate planning attorney. No question! Pros MyCase is very intuitive—there really is no learning curve! It is very organized and user-friendly. Once you log in, it is ready to go and does everything that you expect it to do in a simple, easy, and understandable way. I am a huge fan! Cons I really wish that there was an app specifically designed for client portal access. I do not like that clients have to log into the main MyCase website. I think this is a bit clunky and unprofessional. Perhaps, I am missing something??? Review Source MS Melody S. Managing Attorney Law Practice Used the software for: 2+ years ### "MyCase Is Worth the Investment" August 18, 2025 5.0 Good software, useful for law practice and high volume of cases. If I was in a full-time practice again, I would definitely use it! Pros It integrates fairly well with google calendar and manages case files, documents, due dates, checklists, etc. It was also a great tracker for billing overall by day/month, and you could input goals, etc. Also liked the feature to communicate with clients that was attached to their case Cons The cost was significantly increased while I was using it and the cost per user can be frustrating. Downloading everything for a backup was also not very intuitive or convenient. Also did not like how high the processing fees were for credit cards Review Source RR Rebecca R. Client Care Specialist Law Practice Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Such a robust CRM to keep up with our clients!" June 16, 2026 5.0 MyCase allows me to work with our TEAM efficiently and effectively and easily post updates along the way. Pros How easy it is to update cases throughout the day. I am able to link USCIS Receipt numbers and emails to each case. Cons I would like to be able to see ALL contacts/companies linked to a case in the top grey Case Overview section.
