Where it fits best

PI firm looking for purpose-built case management with PI-native workflows (treatment tracking, lien management, settlement stages) without the implementation overhead of Filevine. Often a strong fit for PI firms with under 100 active matters and under 6 attorneys.

PI or litigation firm with 6+ attorneys. Needs highly customizable case stages, document automation, and robust reporting. Ready to invest in proper implementation (3–6 month timeline).

Where it falls short

Firms outside personal injury. Firms growing toward 100+ active matters where Filevine's deeper customization earns its cost. Firms handling multiple practice areas who need a generalist platform.

Firm is under 6 attorneys. Firm needs to be fully operational in under 60 days. Firm has no dedicated operations resource.

When each platform is the right call

CasePeer

Solo to small PI firm (under 6 attorneys, under 100 active matters) that wants PI-native case management without Filevine's implementation overhead — treatment tracking, lien management, and settlement stages available out of the box.

Filevine

PI or litigation firm with 6+ attorneys that needs highly customizable case stages, document automation, and robust operational reporting — and has the runway (3–6 months) for proper implementation.

What to watch for in this evaluation

CasePeer — common misfits

Firms outside personal injury; firms with 100+ active matters where Filevine's deeper customization and reporting justify the cost; firms handling multiple practice areas who need a generalist PM platform.

Filevine — common misfits

Firms under 6 attorneys; firms needing to go live in under 60 days; firms without a dedicated operations resource; general practice firms for whom Filevine's PI/litigation depth is overkill.
