Every figure below was read on cloudlex.com (the pricing page and its FAQ, the general FAQ and The Legal Cloud terms of service, last updated 12 December 2025) and in 43 Wayback Machine captures of the pricing page from July 2019 to June 2026. Competitor prices come from each vendor's own pricing page.
How much does CloudLex cost?
CloudLex costs whatever your quote says, and it has not printed a number since 2021. The pricing page FAQ is blunt about it: "CloudLex does not publish or authorize standard public per-user pricing. CloudLex pricing is customized based on each personal injury law firm's needs, including selected package, number of users, intake and case management requirements, storage, integrations, AI capabilities, and optional services." A second answer adds that prices on third party websites "should be treated as an estimate only".
The archive fills in the history. For roughly eighteen months CloudLex did show a starting price, and it went up once in that time:
| Capture | What the CloudLex pricing page said |
|---|---|
| July 2019 | Four plans capped by users and matters (Self-Starter up to 3 users and 150 matters, up to Top 100 unlimited), every one "Call for pricing" |
| May to November 2020 | Case management packages "Starting from $65 Per user per month (billed annually)" |
| March to July 2021 | "Starting from $75 Per user per month (billed annually)" |
| September 2021 on | "Pricing Based upon Configuration", no dollar figure in any later capture |
| June 2026 to today | Professional, Advanced and Enterprise, plus the FAQ saying CloudLex does not publish per user pricing |
One more number circulates, and it is not a CloudLex price either. A 2024 post on the CloudLex blog about what legal case management software costs lists user licenses that "start from $90/user/month". That is a market range for cloud case management, written before the current FAQ, not a CloudLex quote. On the directories, Capterra and Software Advice both show pricing on request; the $49 that appears on the Software Advice page belongs to Clio in the alternatives box. Treat any figure you see as a floor from five years ago, and budget from the quote.
What each CloudLex plan includes
CloudLex sells three packages, each a superset of the one below it, and a list of optional add-ons that are priced separately. The plan decides which parts of intake and reporting you get; the add-ons are where CloudLex sells services rather than software.
| Plan | What the pricing page lists | Who it fits |
|---|---|---|
| Professional | Built-in text messaging, eFax and email; system-wide search; medical records, bills, insurance coverage and liens | A PI firm that needs the case file and client communication in one place |
| Advanced | Everything in Professional, plus KPI reporting, lead management with status and qualification, and a website forms API integration | A firm that runs paid intake and wants leads tracked to signed cases |
| Enterprise | Everything in Advanced, plus a website chatbot and call center, QuickBooks Online integration for expense tracking, AI-powered fuzzy search, case referrals to other PI firms with e-sign, and unlimited retrieval with 10 year HIPAA compliant archival | A multi-office firm that refers cases out and archives closed files |
| Add-ons | Remote paralegal support, a bilingual call center and messenger service, medical record retrieval, QuickBooks Online expense management, advanced cognitive search, closed case digital storage | Priced on request; each one is a separate line on the quote |
Two details matter for the budget. QuickBooks sits on Enterprise or as an add-on, so a smaller firm that wants expenses to flow into its books pays for it either way. And CloudLex's AI, Lexee, covers demand drafting and medical summaries with trained professionals reviewing the drafts; its pricing is not stated, so ask whether it is inside the plan or billed per matter. If the call center add-on is on your list mainly for after-hours texts and web chats, compare it with an AI customer service agent that answers and qualifies messages before you add a staffed service to a multi-year quote.
Does CloudLex have a long-term contract?
The length is whatever your Order Form says. The terms bill "either on a monthly or yearly basis (as specified on your most current Order Form)" for "the subscription term specified on the applicable Order Form(s)", and then three clauses do the work. The subscription "will be automatically renewed for successive terms", at the original signup price unless CloudLex tells you otherwise in advance. After a renewal fee notice you have 10 days to give notice of non-renewal. And CloudLex "reserves the right to change its pricing for any new terms".
Cancelling is simple on paper: "You may cancel your subscription at any time by contacting us at [email protected]", and "There are no charges for canceling a subscription." The catch is in the refund clause, which says "no refunds or credits will be issued for partial months of service, upgrade/downgrade refunds, or refunds for months unused with an active subscription". On a yearly plan, cancelling in month five costs you months six to twelve. A downgrade mid-term is not refunded either, so size the plan for the team you have, not the one you are hiring toward.
Can I export my data from CloudLex?
Yes, on a clock. After termination "you shall have 30 days to access your Account and download/export your Customer Data." A second 30 day window is available only by contacting CloudLex and "paying a one-time migration fee as specified by CloudLex from time to time", which is not published. After 60 days CloudLex has no obligation to keep your data, and it deletes it 90 days after termination. The general FAQ says exports are delivered as Excel.
For a PI firm the export plan is not optional. Medical records, bills, lien correspondence and settlement statements have retention duties that outlive any software contract. Start the export before you give notice, check that documents come out with the case data and not only the spreadsheet, and get the second window's fee in writing on the original quote.
Is CloudLex cheaper than CasePeer?
There is no way to know without a quote, because CasePeer prints its price and CloudLex does not. CasePeer lists $90, $130 and $160 per user per month and says no long-term contract or setup fee is required. CloudLex's last public floor, $75 in 2021, sits below CasePeer Basic today, but a five year old floor is not a quote. Here is what the other PI platforms publish:
| Platform | Published price | Contract and exit |
|---|---|---|
| CloudLex | Quote only; last public figure from $75 per user a month billed annually (2021) | Auto renewal, no refund of unused months, 30 free days to export |
| CasePeer | $90 / $130 / $160 per user a month | No long-term contract or setup fee |
| Assembly Neos | Essentials $109 per user a month billed yearly; higher tiers on request | Annual, no refunds |
| SmartAdvocate | Quote only | 30 days notice; SQL export fee of at least $500 |
| Filevine | Quote only, custom packages | Partner implementation fees on top |
When the quotes arrive, compare the whole first year: seats, the setup cost CloudLex's FAQ says migration "typically requires", the add-ons you actually need, and the fee for the second export window. A lower seat rate on an annual plan with no refunds can cost more than a higher monthly rate you can leave.
What to get on a CloudLex quote before you sign
Five lines turn a CloudLex quote into a number you can compare. The per user rate, and whether it is monthly or annual. The setup and migration fee for your current system. A price for each add-on and for Lexee, if you plan to use them. A cap on the renewal price, since the terms let CloudLex reprice new terms. And the one-time migration fee for the second export window, fixed now instead of set later.
Then look at where the hours go. A case management system holds the records; it does not read them. The slow part of a PI file is turning several hundred pages of treatment records into a chronology and a demand, and that is the work CaseAgent's AI legal assistant does inside each matter, on a flat price for the whole firm. Our medical chronology software comparison prices that work across vendors, and the personal injury case management page shows where an agent fits beside the system you choose.
CloudLex pricing, other questions
Does CloudLex charge per user?
Yes, the number of users is one of the factors CloudLex lists for its quotes, and every figure it ever printed was per user per month. In 2020 the pricing page read starting from $65 per user per month billed annually, and in 2021 starting from $75. Since late 2021 the page has said pricing is based upon configuration.
Does CloudLex have a free trial?
No trial is offered on cloudlex.com. The pricing page sends every plan to a demo request, and software directories list the free trial as not available. Run the demo on a closed file of your own, with its medical records and liens, so you see how the Professional plan handles the documents your team touches every day.
Does CloudLex auto renew?
Yes. The terms say any subscription is automatically renewed for successive terms at the original signup price unless CloudLex notifies you otherwise in advance. After a renewal fee notice you have 10 days to give notice of non-renewal. CloudLex also reserves the right to change its pricing for any new term, so ask for a renewal cap in writing.
