What the pricing really means
CaseFleet publishes their pricing upfront, which is a good sign. Filevine 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 CaseFleet wins
- Best fact chronology and timeline tool in the legal market — nothing else does this as well
- Document annotation links facts to source documents, so every claim in your timeline cites evidence
- Cast of characters feature tracks all people and entities across a case
- Capterra rating of 4.8 reflects genuine satisfaction from litigation power users
Where Filevine wins
- Highly customizable with custom fields, sections, and workflows that adapt to any practice area without developer help
- Built-in AI tools for contract review and document analysis, which are genuinely useful not just marketing fluff
- Task automation and deadline tracking is best-in-class for litigation workflows
- Acquired Lead Docket for intake and DeadlineDocket for court rules, so the full suite is now comprehensive
Where CaseFleet falls short
- No billing, time tracking, or trust accounting — still needs a separate tool for firm financials
- Must be paired with a full PM tool (Clio, Filevine, etc.) for daily firm operations
- Starter plan limited to 20 docs per case — most litigators need the $75/user Advanced AI plan
- No mobile app
Where Filevine falls short
- No public pricing — you have to sit through a demo call, which usually means it's expensive
- No trust accounting built in, so you'll still need CosmoLex or QuickBooks for IOLTA compliance
- Overkill for solo attorneys or 2-3 person firms — the customization power becomes complexity you don't need
- Steeper learning curve than Clio or MyCase because of all the configuration options
Who is each product built for?
CaseFleet
Target: 1-50 attorneys
CaseFleet is a specialized litigation analysis tool, not practice management. If you're building complex case timelines for trial, it's genuinely excellent. It pairs with your existing PM tool — it doesn't replace it.
Filevine
Target: 5-500+ attorneys
Filevine is purpose-built for litigation firms that handle high volumes of cases and need customizable workflows. If you're running PI, mass tort, or insurance defense with 5+ attorneys, it's worth the demo. Solo practitioners should look elsewhere.
