What the pricing really means
Both Filevine and Jove (formerly GrowPath) use custom pricing, which means you need to talk to sales. In our experience, custom pricing usually means the product is targeting larger operations and the monthly cost will be higher than products with published prices. Ask specifically about total year-one cost, including setup, onboarding, and training.
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 Jove (formerly GrowPath) wins
- Intake module designed for call center teams with scripts, qualification questions, and lead scoring
- Mass tort campaign management tracks advertising spend vs signed cases for ROI visibility
- Medical records ordering and tracking integrated into the case workflow
- Real-time dashboards show intake conversion rates and case pipeline value
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
Where Jove (formerly GrowPath) falls short
- No trust accounting — you'll need a separate tool for IOLTA compliance
- Very few reviews (30 total), making it hard to assess long-term reliability
- Custom pricing with no public information
