What the pricing really means
Docketwise publishes their pricing upfront, which is a good sign. Assembly Neos requires you to contact sales for a quote. When a company hides pricing, it usually means the cost is high enough that they want a salesperson to justify it before you see the number. Always ask for total year-one cost, not just the monthly subscription.
Where Assembly Neos wins
- Purpose-built for plaintiff firms with medical provider tracking, lien management, and settlement disbursement sheets
- Intake module captures leads from web forms, phone calls, and referral sources with attribution tracking
- Workflow automation can move cases through stages automatically based on triggers and deadlines
- Integrates with medical record retrieval services
Where Docketwise wins
- Smart questionnaires are the best in the immigration space — clients fill out one form and the data populates across all related USCIS applications
- Capterra rating of 4.8 is among the highest for any legal PM tool
- Starting at $69/user is cheaper than LollyLaw's $79/user for similar immigration-specific features
- 7-day free trial to test the questionnaire workflow with real cases
Where Assembly Neos falls short
- No public pricing — custom quotes suggest mid-market pricing
- Only useful for plaintiff-side litigation — defense firms and transactional practices need to look elsewhere
- Fewer reviews and smaller user base than CASEpeer or Filevine
- The Neos brand (formerly known as LawRuler for CRM) can be confusing
Where Docketwise falls short
- Immigration only — no value for general practice firms
- No mobile app
- No email management
- No conflict checks built in
