About MerusCase
MerusCase is a cloud-based law practice, case and legal document management platform that boasts centralized, secured and HIPAA compliant access to every device. The system claims to enable attorneys and practice staff alike to run legal operations from the office, court or field, leveraging wholly customizable preferences and features. Role-based user access fits the way each individual works while adding specific support around custom case workflows, tracking unique tasks and To-Do lists most effectively. Firm-wide calendaring then syncs planned events, reminders, notes and contacts across the entire staff base while an integrated email system keeps related communications within a single space.
MerusCase goes on to incorporate time tracking and electronic billing capabilities, utilizing a built-in bookkeeping system to raise invoices, accept payments and manage balances. A Case Ledger tracks expenses while billable time is automatically logged as soon as any associated work action commences. Similarly, document management tools encourage paperless office workflows with autonomous batch scanning and the ability to auto-populate PDF court forms, saving time and raising accuracy. Firm-wide document search then puts staff in touch with required case files quickly while integrated with Microsoft Word acknowledges the use of familiar word processing tools when merging letters or documents.

Smooth, Organized and professional

I learned how to handle tasks and assist attorneys in a clean and intuitive software.
I learned how to handle tasks and assist attorneys in a clean and intuitive software.
Pros
I like how you can easily create new contacts and open cases in an effective and straightforward way. The layout of the Case Details tab makes it easy to find what you are looking for in a case. I love how MerusCase easily syncs with your email account and also remind you of important events coming up. The calendar is simple to use and can help you filter by person which is incredibly useful. Overall a very pleasing software that can increase productivity and help you manage day to day tasks.
Cons
The only improvement I would suggest is that at times previews of documents can be slow or delayed. If this could be fixed it would greatly speed up document processing.
Response from Merus
Hi Gerardo,
Thank you for your kind words. Here at Merus we work hard to deliver the best value to our customers. Within the past few days, we've redesigned our system to ensure that document previews render more quickly and display at 200dpi, compared to the 72dpi they were at before. You should see the difference the next time you open a document within MerusCase. Thank you for being a MerusCase customer!

Fantastic File and Document Management Software

I am very happy with this program
I am very happy with this program
Pros
The transfer of documents and client/file information from the two different programs we used prior to MerusCase was fast and much cheaper than other options. The software itself is very intuitive to use and navigate and easily adapted to mimic our paper filing system.
Cons
I don't love the email function, but we don't use it anyway.

Started well, company sold, purchaser is now concerned only about signing up new customers, not developing their capacities to support the needs of existing users.
Pros
The suite does what it says it does, providing a cloud-based medium for organizing case files, billing, etc.
Cons
The suite is only accessible with an internet connection and, while it started its development with promise, it has tried to be a jack of all trades, offering solutions for everyone without a strong enough feature set for anyone. Office integration is tenuous and new features roll out without any thought as to how existing users should go about applying new features to existing cases. Honestly, if we weren't so invested in the platform, I would have moved to a new provider a year ago.
