We compared all six Docketwise price points, from $80 to $140 per user, weighing plan contents, trial terms, renewal terms and refund terms. Prices come from Docketwise's own pricing page, and the billing terms come from its terms of service and help articles.
Docketwise pricing on the company's own page is $80, $100 or $120 per user per month on yearly billing, for Basic, Pro and Advanced. Monthly billing costs $90, $120 or $140. Because Docketwise charges per user, a firm multiplies the price by the number of people with a login. Yearly billing saves $10 to $20 per user per month.
Key Takeaways
- Docketwise lists Basic at $80 yearly or $90 monthly, Pro at $100 or $120, and Advanced at $120 or $140, all per user per month.
- Paying yearly saves $120 per user per year on Basic and $240 on Pro and Advanced.
- A five-user firm on Pro pays $500 a month on yearly billing or $600 on monthly billing, before card processing and government filing fees.
- Annual plans are charged in advance, so yearly billing costs the same or less after 10 to 11 months. Monthly billing suits a firm still testing the fit.
- Under Docketwise's terms, plans renew automatically and fees are non-refundable, so a firm should cancel before the renewal date, not after.
What Docketwise Is and How It Charges
Docketwise is cloud-based case management software built for immigration law firms and legal service providers. Its product information page, last updated June 25, 2026, says the software supports direct e-filing with government agencies and tracks receipt numbers and deadlines.
The subscription is charged per user per month. The bill follows headcount and ignores caseload. A firm with two attorneys, one paralegal and one office manager has four users and pays four times the per user price. Docketwise sells three plans, called Basic, Pro and Advanced.
Docketwise Pricing by Plan
The pricing page has a Yearly and Monthly toggle, and it shows Basic, Pro and Advanced with one price each in either view. Every price below is per user per month.

Why Older Pages Show Lower Prices
A Docketwise help article dated February 29, 2024 lists lower prices. Every plan has risen since, as the table shows. That article also lists an annual total per user, which is 12 times the yearly monthly price.
What Each Docketwise Plan Includes
Each plan includes everything in the plan below it, and Docketwise's subscription article says all users on an account share one subscription level. A firm therefore chooses the plan for its most demanding need.
What a Docketwise Subscription Costs a Firm
Once a firm has picked a plan, its cost comes down to multiplication. The table shows the monthly bill for each plan at three firm sizes.
How to Estimate Your Own Docketwise Cost
Any other firm size follows the same method. Work through the steps in order and record the date of the price you used.
- Count every person who needs a login, including attorneys, paralegals and office staff.
- Pick the lowest plan that covers the firm's most demanding need, using the plan table above.
- Read the yearly and monthly prices from the live pricing page and note the date.
- Multiply the price by the user count, then by 12 for a yearly view.
- Add the outside costs covered later in this guide.
For example, six users on Pro cost $600 a month on yearly billing, or $7,200 a year, and $720 a month on monthly billing.
Should You Choose Monthly or Yearly Billing?
Yearly billing is cheaper per month on every plan, so the choice depends on how sure the firm is about staying. The saving per user is $10 a month on Basic and $20 on Pro and Advanced. A Docketwise help article dated September 15, 2026 says annual billing saves approximately 15 percent, depending on the tier.
The second question is how long the firm will stay. Docketwise's terms say annual subscriptions are charged in advance, unless the order states a different billing frequency. On that basis, yearly billing costs the same or less from the month shown below.
When Each Option Fits
- Choose yearly when the firm has finished its trial and expects to keep the same users for 12 months. Advanced buyers also get free data migration, which is listed only on the annual plan.
- Choose monthly when the firm is still testing the fit, expects staff to join or leave soon, or wants room to change plans.
- With either option, set a reminder before the renewal date. Docketwise's terms give no refund for missing it.
Trial, Billing and Costs Outside the Subscription
The seat price is the base of the bill, and the first-year total also depends on the terms around it. Docketwise's terms of service are hosted on 8am.com and cover 8am DocketWise.
Trial and Payment Terms
- A 7-day free trial with no setup fees for standard accounts is stated on Docketwise's information page.
- According to a July 21, 2026 help article, users provide payment details to start the trial and are not billed during it.
- Under the terms, a firm that gave a payment method is charged when the trial ends. A subscription cancelled before then is not charged.
- Monthly subscriptions are charged in advance each month. Annual subscriptions are charged in advance on the anniversary of the first charge, unless the order states a different billing frequency.
Renewal, Cancellation and Refunds
- Plans renew automatically, monthly or annually, and the firm is charged on the renewal date.
- A firm can end a subscription at any time through its account or by emailing customer support. It then ends immediately before the next renewal date.
- Service fees are final and non-refundable under the terms, which also give no refund for missing the renewal date.
- Docketwise can change its prices with prior written notice. A price change for a subscription takes effect at the start of the next subscription period.
Costs Outside the Subscription
- Data import is an add-on with a separate fee under the terms. Advanced lists free data migration on the annual plan. Pre-paid import fees are non-refundable.
- USCIS publishes its filing fees on Form G-1055. The government sets them, not Docketwise.
- New subscribers have LawPay transaction fees waived, according to the information page.
