MyCase Pricing and MyCase Cost Per User in 2026
MyCase prints $50, $100 and $130 per user a month on annual billing. What 5 and 10 users pay, which plan holds the AI, and what a flat priced reader costs beside it.
If you are pricing MyCase, you will find that the vendor prints its rates, which already puts it ahead of most legal software, and that third party sites quote old numbers. The figures below were read from MyCase's own pricing page and add up what a small firm actually pays.
MyCase costs $50, $100 or $130 per user per month on Basic, Pro and Advanced when billed annually, or $60, $120 and $150 when billed month to month. A five person firm on Pro pays $6,000 a year. Add-ons such as MyCase Accounting at $39 per user a month and extra AI discovery pages at $30 per 5,000 are extra.
How much does MyCase cost per user?
MyCase has three paid plans and no free plan. The annual rate saves $120 to $240 a year per user compared with monthly billing, and cancelling mid term does not refund fees already paid. There is a 10 day trial with no card, and no setup fee. The table multiplies the annual rate by firm size.
| Plan | Billed annually | Billed monthly | 5 users a year (annual) | 10 users a year (annual) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| MyCase Basic | $50 | $60 | $3,000 | $6,000 |
| MyCase Pro | $100 | $120 | $6,000 | $12,000 |
| MyCase Advanced | $130 | $150 | $7,800 | $15,600 |
Annual billing is paid upfront, so the 10 user Pro line is a $12,000 check at signing. On month to month billing the same firm pays $14,400 over twelve months, which is the price of leaving the door open.
What do you get on each MyCase plan?
Basic covers the core of a practice: cases, contacts, calendaring, time and expenses, invoices, trust accounting and conflict check tracking, with unlimited document storage. Pro adds e-signatures, texting, workflows and the client portal. Advanced adds the heavier AI and billing tools. The AI is where the plans differ most.
| What you need | Basic | Pro | Advanced |
|---|---|---|---|
| Case, contact, calendar, time and trust accounting | Yes | Yes | Yes |
| Unlimited e-signatures | No | Yes | Yes |
| Two-way texting, workflows, document generation | No | Yes | Yes |
| 8am IQ Writing and Document Assistants | No | Yes | Yes |
| 8am IQ Case Assistant and Discovery Assistant (OCR) | No | No | Yes |
| Split billing, Open API, full content search | No | No | Yes |
The 8am IQ Case Assistant and Discovery Assistant sit on Advanced only. The Discovery Assistant includes 5,000 pages per user each month, shared across the firm, and the pages expire at the end of the subscription period. Extra blocks of 5,000 pages cost $30 for the whole firm. If your volume is a few big files a month, count pages before you count seats.
Is MyCase worth it for a small law firm?
For a firm that needs one system for billing, trust accounting, calendaring and client communication, yes, and Basic at $50 is among the cheaper entry prices among the major platforms. It is general practice software, not built around reading a record set. Personal injury and litigation firms often pay for it and still have a paralegal reading 2,000 pages of medical charts by hand.
Where does the extra cost show up?
Three places catch small firms. First, the AI tier: the useful reading tools need Advanced, which is $30 per user a month more than Pro. Second, payments: LawPay has no monthly fee, but processing fees apply to every card payment. Third, accounting: MyCase Accounting is $39 per user a month on top of the plan, which moves a Pro seat from $100 to $139.
Data migration is also limited on Basic, so a firm coming from another system should ask what is included in writing. Support, training and guided implementation are listed on every plan.
MyCase compared with a flat priced document reader
MyCase bills per user, so cost follows headcount. CaseClerk is a different purchase: it does not run your cases, it reads the documents in them and cites the page for every answer, and it bills per account. Upload records, bills, a demand package or a production, then ask for the timeline, billed totals by provider or the one contradiction between two depositions.
| Option | What you pay | What it does for a 3,000 page file |
|---|---|---|
| MyCase Advanced, 5 users | $7,800 a year on annual billing, plus $30 per extra 5,000 pages | Practice management with AI discovery pages included |
| MyCase Pro, 5 users | $6,000 a year, no Discovery Assistant | Management, writing and document help, no page-level discovery reading |
| CaseClerk Solo | $99 a month for the account, 2,500 pages | Reads the file and cites the page behind each answer, no case management |
| CaseClerk Professional | $249 a month for the account, 10,000 pages | Same, for firms running several files at once |
These are not substitutes. If your pain is billing and client portal, MyCase fits. If your pain is reading, a $99 to $249 reader beside any case management system is cheaper than moving seats up to a higher tier. Our comparison of MyCase alternatives covers the choice in detail, and the same logic applies to CasePeer pricing and Smokeball pricing.
A worked example for a six person litigation firm
Take four attorneys and two paralegals who need e-signatures, texting and workflows. That is Pro at six seats, $7,200 a year on annual billing. If two of those people also read heavy discovery, moving only two seats to Advanced raises the bill by $720, because plans are per user, but then the Discovery Assistant pages are pooled for the whole firm. The alternative is leaving Pro as it is and adding CaseClerk Professional at $249 a month, $2,988 a year, with no seat limit on who uploads.
Neither choice is wrong. The honest test is to take one closed file and time how long it takes to answer five questions with each tool, then check whether every answer points to a real page.
Many small firms also send engagement letters and fee agreements for signature. If that is part of your intake, an online form builder such as Formsbuilder can collect the details and signatures before the matter is opened in your case system.
Security questions to ask before uploading client files
Whatever you buy, ask in writing where files are stored, whether your documents train any model, how long they are retained and whether the vendor will sign a confidentiality addendum. The ABA's guidance on generative AI, Formal Opinion 512, makes competence and confidentiality the lawyer's duty, not the vendor's. You can read it on the ABA site.
