MyCase's Payment Processing Is LawPay. That's Not a Small Detail.
When a client pays an invoice through MyCase's online payment link, the transaction runs through LawPay, not a generic card processor. That matters because LawPay was built specifically to solve a problem generic processors create for law firms: a card network's processing fee can't legally come straight out of a trust deposit without creating a commingling problem. LawPay routes the fee around the trust balance instead of through it.
How people usually connect them
MyCase and LawPay are both AffiniPay products, so the integration between them is native, not a third-party add-on bolted on afterward. A client pays through MyCase's portal or an emailed invoice link, LawPay processes the card or bank transfer, and the payment posts back into the matter in MyCase, split correctly between the trust and operating sides when the invoice calls for both.
We don't sell, set up, or process payments ourselves. What we build sits after the payment lands: getting that LawPay transaction data reconciled correctly against the firm's broader accounting and trust records, which is the part that still takes a person's attention even with the native split working as designed.
Where the gap is
The trust/operating split happens correctly inside MyCase and LawPay. Where firms still lose time is afterward: matching each LawPay settlement against the right invoice and matter when a batch deposit hits the bank a day or two later, especially once refunds, declined payments, or partial payments are in the mix. A firm running high payment volume ends up with a settlement batch that doesn't map one-to-one to the invoices it covers, and someone has to reconstruct that mapping by hand to close the books cleanly.
Where this shows up in practice
Settlement batches that match themselves to invoices
A LawPay settlement deposit gets matched automatically against the MyCase invoices it covers, flagging the rare mismatch, a refund, a partial payment, a declined card retried later, instead of a bookkeeper tracing a lump-sum deposit back through a stack of invoices.
Trust deposits confirmed the same day they land
A client payment flagged as a trust deposit in MyCase gets checked against the matter's trust ledger the same day, not whenever the next reconciliation cycle happens to catch it.
Where does your firm's payment reconciliation actually stall?
Tell us where LawPay settlements and MyCase invoices stop lining up cleanly. We'll scope what's worth automating there.
Running MyCase's LawPay payments and still reconciling settlements by hand?
Tell us how payments flow from a client's card to your firm's books right now, and we'll look at where the manual matching can go away. If LawPay reconciliation turns out to be fine and the real time sink is somewhere else, that's useful to know too, the same automation applies to any system generating data your firm has to act on.
