MyCase Alternative for Small Law Firms That Want AI Doing the Work
Jural is a MyCase alternative for small law firms that want the legal work done faster, not only the matter records stored. MyCase is a practice management system with a client portal, billing and, on higher tiers, intake and conflict tracking. Jural covers the office side (intake, conflict checks, deadlines, time entries) on every plan and also reviews contracts against your clause positions, drafts from your templates and answers research questions with cited sources. Plans are published from $24 per user a month billed yearly ($49 month to month). Upload a contract in the box on this page to see the review before you create an account.

Why small firms look for a MyCase alternative
MyCase is a solid choice for a firm that wants billing, a client portal and a calendar in one place. It publishes its prices, which is more than many legal vendors do.
Firms start comparing for three reasons. The features a small firm needs climb by tier: on MyCase's pricing page, time tracking is in Basic at $50 per user a month billed yearly, client intake appears from Pro at $100, and conflict checking from Advanced at $130. A practice management system stores the work but does not do it, so contract review, first drafts and research still need another subscription. And a solo or two-lawyer firm often pays per seat for modules it never opens.
Jural is not a billing and trust accounting system. If you need invoices and trust ledgers, keep a billing tool and add Jural for the legal work. See every plan on AI legal assistant pricing.

MyCase wins on the client portal, billing and an all-in-one system of record. CosmoLex wins when trust accounting is the center of the firm. Jural wins when the pain is hours spent reading contracts, drafting from scratch and retyping intake facts. Many small firms run both. If you are still choosing a system of record, see legal case management software and law practice management software.
What Jural does that a practice management system does not
- AI contract review software that ranks each clause by severity against your positions and returns a tracked-changes DOCX.
- Legal document automation software that fills your engagement letters, demand letters and motion shells with matter facts.
- AI for legal research that links each sentence to the passage it rests on.
- Law firm conflict check software with fuzzy name matching and attorney sign-off on every new matter.
- Legal intake software that collects facts and names before the consult.
- Time tracking software for lawyers that drafts entries from your notes and matter activity.
Moving from MyCase, or adding Jural next to it
- Upload one real contract or document in the box at the top of this page and judge the review. No account is needed for the first one.
- Create your account. Solo covers one or two seats, Firm starts at three and Enterprise at ten.
- Load your templates and clause positions into the document management system for law firms.
- Keep MyCase for billing and the client portal if you want them, or run matters, conflicts, deadlines and time entries in Jural and export time as CSV or LEDES 1998B.
Who picks Jural over MyCase
A solo who pays for a full practice management suite but spends the week on contracts, letters and research. A two to five lawyer firm that needs intake and conflict checks without stepping up to the Pro or Advanced tier. A firm that wants a published per-seat price for each lawyer before talking to anyone.
A firm that depends on a client portal, online payments and built-in billing will likely stay on MyCase for those, and we would rather you keep the right system of record. The solo law practice software page and the small law firm software page show how plans fit by size.
What stays with the attorney
Jural supports lawyers and does not give legal advice. Every review, draft and research answer is a draft for attorney review. Jural does not keep a trust ledger or run payment processing. Client documents are never used to train AI models and are encrypted in transit and at rest. Details are on confidential AI for law firms.
