Pros

“On any given day I'm managing court deadlines, client communications, e-filings, pleadings, discovery, publications, billing, and hundreds of active matters at various stages of litigation and administration.”

Wanda R.

Estate Litigation Paralegal

“I use it for all of my billing and payment, along with document management, including e signature for clients. if I ever have a problem, I can easily chat with customer service and they have always helped me with whatever issue I have.”

Carlia W.

Attorney, Owner

“The case notes, task management, document storage, billing, and client communication tools work together in a way that helps me stay organized even when I'm juggling dozens of urgent matters at once.”

Wanda R.

Estate Litigation Paralegal

Pros

“The onboarding process was smooth, the support team was helpful, and the software has delivered meaningful improvements in efficiency and case management. Since making the switch, we've seen continuous enhancements to the platform, along with excellent customer service whenever questions arise.”

Jason D.

Director of Operations

“Smokeball has helped keep our communication on the same page, generate templates that ease time, and keep workflows consistent so that nothing falls through the cracks on our cases.”

Alita I.

Paralegal

“We primarily handle personal injury cases, and Smokeball has been an excellent fit for our workflow, helping us stay organized and efficient.”

Jason D.

Director of Operations

Cons

“The text messaging integration is difficult to get working; Can be somewhat laggy at times; The basic templating for clients could be improved”

Louis S.

Legal Assistant

“I don't like their split billing process. If I generate an invoice and split it between two people, and one person pays on the invoice and the other does not, I am not able to forward that invoice to the new invoice, and only bill the prior invoice to the one person who didn't pay. ”

Niccole S.

Paralegal

“My old client information was poorly organized and I was not able simply upload everything into MyCase. ”

Todd A.

Attorney

Cons

“It is also missing the ability to create matters on the phone app. If you use Smokeball with Classic Outlook, it can sync up with your calendar when you create the matter in Outlook. If that features exists in the New Outlook, I cannot seem to find it, so while I would like to use the New Outlook for various reasons, I cannot right now, since that syncing feature is so important to me.”

Bela B.

Managing Attorney

“The pace of development and responsiveness to user feedback makes it hard to point to any major ongoing frustrations.”

Jason D.

Director of Operations

“The character limit in title of case can keep esign feature from working.”

Angela G.
