What MyCase Actually Is
MyCase is cloud practice management software built around client communication. Matters, contacts, documents, calendars, time entries and invoices sit on one record, with a client portal and two-way messaging attached to every case.
Firms usually choose it when the bottleneck is client contact volume, chasing updates, resending documents, following up on unpaid invoices, rather than complex litigation project tracking. Billing, payments and text messaging are part of the core product rather than bolt-ons.
It fits less well for very large firms with heavy custom workflow requirements, or teams that need deep document assembly for one narrow practice area.
Capabilities worth knowing about
- Case records holding notes, tasks, deadlines and linked documents
- Client portal with secure messaging, document sharing and text updates
- Lead intake pipeline with custom forms and e-signature
- Time tracking, flexible rates, batch invoicing and payment plans
- Trust and IOLTA accounting with reconciliation and audit trail
- Card and eCheck payments collected directly from invoices
