What the pricing really means

At first glance, MyCase looks cheaper at $39/month vs $75/month. But sticker price is only part of the story. Look at what is included on the base plan, how many users you get, and whether you need add-ons to get the features you actually need. The $99/month plan that requires $200 in add-ons is actually more expensive than the $250/month plan that includes everything.

Where MyCase wins

  • Built-in client texting on the Pro plan, which most competitors charge extra for or don't offer at all
  • Client portal is one of the best in the category — clients can view case updates, upload documents, and pay invoices
  • Starting at $39/user/month, it's noticeably cheaper than Clio for basic case management needs
  • 10-day free trial to actually test it with real data before committing

Where Prevail wins

  • Negotiations tracking module specifically designed for PI settlement workflows
  • Medical records and provider billing tracked in a structured timeline
  • Single pricing tier keeps it simple
  • Been in the PI space for years with a loyal user base

Where MyCase falls short

  • No court rule deadline calendaring, so you'll need a separate tool or manual tracking for jurisdiction-specific deadlines
  • Storage is capped at 2 GB per user on the Basic plan, which fills up fast with litigation documents
  • Reporting is basic until you hit the Advanced plan at $89/user
  • Fewer third-party integrations than Clio — about 70 vs Clio's 250+

Where Prevail falls short

  • No client portal, no intake forms, no eSignature
  • Interface feels dated compared to CASEpeer and CloudLex
  • No API, limiting integration possibilities
  • Missing modern features that CASEpeer and CloudLex include
