Pros

“I enjoy Caret Legal, and how it allows us to stay connected to our caseload outside of the office or at my desk.”
BR

Brooke R.

Paralegal

“I really like the seamless workflow in CARET Legal that extends from time tracking to prebilling and then to finalized billing.”
CD

Crissy D.

Accounting Manager

“They switched to outsourced tech help happened several years ago - back then, customer service was quite helpful, and now, a simple issue can have multiple tickets, threads, and just general messy communication that seems to drag out and prolong issues.”
NM

Natalya M.

Chief Operating Officer

Pros

“It's no standard AI, the intelligence of AI Paralegal, CRM (I chat with pilot constantly), Matter Issues, Pathways, Ruffle, it's just endless the support”
KO

Kathryn O.

Managing Partner

“For estate planning, for instance, Leap features prompts for you to fill in all family members, all heirs, all devisees, all assets of various types, all executors, all agents,...”
BO

Brendan O.

President and Lawyer

“We have a system in place that any work that gets done on a client's file must be notated in the "Notes" section and with the Time, Save and Close feature we have found that staff is capturing more billable time. ”
JC

Joanne C.

Assistant Office Manager

Cons

“I do not like that it does not have the ability to expand text as in Amicus and that Caret does NOT sync People with Outlook contacts and does not have the ability to mark emails sent from Caret as Important (or Confidential etc).”
DD

Donna D.

Managing Partner

“You can’t build them on your own and have to rely on their team to compile everything, which limits flexibility and can slow down access to the insights you need.”
KR

Kayla R.

Office Manager and Paralegal

“Frequent issues, calendar items disappear from calendar, emails won't save to the matters and billing issues. ”
CM

C M.

Owner

Cons

“I can't save PDFs from Adobe directly to Leap even though i have the Leap add-in installed. And with Microsoft products i get recurring error messages and they sometimes get sick in a loop. But Leap's customer and tech support are very receptive to customer input and responsive to tech issues and problems.”
BO

Brendan O.

President and Lawyer

“The only feature I miss from previous suppliers that is not done in LEAP is the ability to see, at a glance, all documents (eg. scanned) for a particular day, or all calls for a particular day.”
Verified reviewer profile picture

Rossa M.

Partner

“Integration with MS Office applications is very glitchy: saving documents into LEAP from different applications like Outlook, PDF or Word is not intuitive (small window pops up without clear destination folder).”
