TL;DR

• Pick Lawcus if you’re a solo or small firm that wants workflow and marketing automation without jumping to a triple-digit per-seat tier, its Elite plan tops out at $89/seat monthly ($79 annual).
• Pick MyCase if you want a longer-established platform (founded 2010) with deeper feature bundling at the Basic level, including client portal, unlimited document storage, and legal calendaring from $49/seat.
• Core tradeoff: Lawcus is cheaper at the top end and includes a distinct Enterprise tier; MyCase is pricier in the middle but packs more features into entry-level plans.

Pricing

Lowest tier: Both vendors start at the same published rate, $49/seat monthly, or $39/seat on annual billing. Lawcus calls this “Essential” (Case & Matter Management, Billing & Invoicing, Trust Accounting). MyCase calls it “Basic” and bundles more out of the gate: Case and Contact Management, Task Management, Client Portal, Time Entry and Expense Tracking, Billing and Online Payments, Legal Calendaring, Unlimited Document Storage, and Basic Financial Reporting.

Middle tier: Here the vendors diverge. Lawcus “Growth” is $69/seat monthly ($59 annual) and adds QuickBooks/Xero integration, Google and Office 365 integration, Nova AI, and custom fields. MyCase “Pro” is $99/seat monthly ($89 annual), $30 more per seat per month, and adds 8am IQ legal AI, custom fields, unlimited 2-way texting, client intake management, unlimited eSignature, and advanced billing.

Highest published tier: Lawcus “Elite” is $89/seat monthly ($79 annual) with workflow automation, marketing automation, and a custom report builder. MyCase “Advanced” is $119/seat monthly ($109 annual), adding MyCase Drive, full-text search, 8am IQ case assistant, advanced document automation, split billing, and an open API.

Lawcus also publishes a fourth, unpriced Enterprise tier (minimum 10 users) with dedicated onboarding, custom feature development, and private cloud/SLA options, pricing is not listed on the page. MyCase does not publish an equivalent enterprise SKU.

Neither vendor gates pricing behind a form.

When to pick Lawcus

Lawcus fits solo and small firms that:

• Want workflow and marketing automation at a sub-$90/seat price point. The Elite plan is $89/seat monthly vs. MyCase’s $119/seat Advanced.
• Need a documented Enterprise pathway, custom feature development, private cloud, and SLA options are listed as an available tier (10-user minimum).
• Are cost-sensitive on the middle tier: Lawcus Growth ($69) sits $30/seat/month below MyCase Pro ($99), which matters across a 5-seat firm ($1,800/year difference).
• Prefer a four-tier ladder that lets you add advanced features incrementally rather than making one large jump from Basic to Pro.

When to pick MyCase

MyCase fits solo and small firms that:

• Value a longer operating track record, MyCase was founded in 2010, seven years before Lawcus (2017).
• Want more features in the entry-level plan: client portal, unlimited document storage, legal calendaring, and basic financial reporting are all included at $49/seat, whereas Lawcus Essential lists only matter management, billing, and trust accounting.
• Need built-in client communication tools at the mid-tier: unlimited 2-way texting (with images), unlimited eSignature, and client intake management are part of Pro.
• Want an open API (available on MyCase Advanced), Lawcus does not list an open API in its published tier features.

Integrations and ecosystem

Neither JSON lists specific named integrations in the integrations array, so a head-to-head count is not possible from this data. From tier descriptions, however, we can observe:

• Lawcus advertises QuickBooks, Xero, Google, and Office 365 integrations starting at the Growth tier ($69/seat monthly).
• MyCase advertises Google, Outlook, ”+ more” integrations at the Pro tier ($99/seat monthly), and exposes an Open API on the Advanced tier ($119/seat monthly).

Buyers who need accounting integrations (QuickBooks/Xero) should note that Lawcus surfaces these at a lower price point. Buyers who need programmatic API access should note MyCase explicitly lists an Open API at its top tier; Lawcus does not.

Historical pricing context

Lawcus has no pricing history recorded in this dataset, so we cannot comment on its trajectory.

MyCase’s pricing history shows two snapshots from early 2022: a “MyCase” plan at $49/seat monthly (January 2022) and a “Basic” plan at $39/seat monthly (March 2022), both via Wayback Machine. Today, MyCase Basic is $49/seat monthly ($39/seat on annual billing). The annual rate ($39) matches the 2022 monthly rate, suggesting MyCase has effectively held entry-level annual pricing flat while raising the month-to-month rate by $10/seat over roughly four years. The introduction of Pro ($99) and Advanced ($119) tiers reflects an upmarket move that did not exist in the 2022 snapshots.
