What the pricing really means
Both INSZoom and Legal Files 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 INSZoom wins

Where INSZoom falls short

- Overkill for solo practitioners or small immigration firms
- No trust accounting, no mobile app, no eSignature
Where Legal Files falls short

INSZoom
Target: 10-500+ attorneys
INSZoom is built for corporate immigration departments and big law firms handling hundreds of visa petitions. Solo and small immigration firms should use Docketwise or LollyLaw instead.
Legal Files
Target: 10-500+ users
Legal Files serves a different market than most legal PM tools — in-house legal departments, not law firms. If you're corporate counsel managing outside legal spend and litigation holds, it's worth a demo. Law firms should look elsewhere.
