$69/user/mo billed annually for immigration case management, published on our site.
Prima's Zapier app, External API and n8n support give you Filevine-style flexibility without the enterprise price tag.
56 features across forms, intake, filing, billing, AI and integrations.
“Limited” means the feature is partial, restricted to a higher tier, or a paid add-on. “Not listed” means we couldn’t find it in the vendor’s public materials. “Basic” means a simpler version of the feature: for package assembly, the vendor doesn’t document the full toolset (table of contents, exhibit sheets, page numbering, cover sheet, drag-and-drop ordering, instant renumbering, custom footer, section headings, exhibit label styles and templates). “Via Zapier / n8n” and “Via API + n8n” are capabilities Prima.Law customers build with Prima’s integrations rather than native features. *Needs live demo verification.

Filevine is owned by Filevine Inc.. It’s a good fit for: mid-size and large litigation and personal injury firms.
Prima.Law’s Zapier app has 40+ instant triggers (cases, tasks, notes, calls, calendar events, payments, and immigration profile data like passports, EADs and travel history) plus 13 actions, and it works on Zapier’s free plan. Firms on the Prima.Law Enterprise plan’s External API can build n8n workflows, custom apps and AI agents that work directly with their Prima data.
A website form, Facebook Lead Ad or Calendly booking creates a Prima lead or contact, opens a case of the right type, and assigns an intake task.
When a case is created, DocuSign, Dropbox Sign or PandaDoc sends the retainer. The signed PDF is uploaded back to the case automatically.
Every Prima payment transaction posts to QuickBooks Online; new contacts become QuickBooks customers.
Get notified the moment a lead arrives, a checklist is completed, a task is assigned or a payment comes in.
Tag clients (e.g. “TPS” or “H-1B renewal”) and sync them to a Mailchimp or Constant Contact audience for newsletters and announcements.
When a passport, EAD or advance parole record is added or updated, create a follow-up task or calendar reminder.
RingCentral, Dialpad or Aircall calls are logged to the right contact in Prima automatically.
Stream new cases, tasks and payments into Google Sheets or Airtable for firm-wide reporting.
Use the External API with n8n to build AI agents that triage new leads, extract data from documents or draft tasks and notes in Prima.
Keep Prima in sync with your firm's CRM, data warehouse or BI tool, or build a custom client-update app.
