ConflictCheck

Overview

ConflictCheck is a screening and intake tool for law practices and legal departments, particularly solo attorneys and two-attorney firms in the United States. Its structured intake and broader name matching help organize checks across a practice’s records, while the licensed attorney remains responsible for deciding whether a conflict exists and whether to accept a matter.

Key features

The phone-friendly intake form gathers client and former names, adverse parties, related entities, referral source, opposing counsel and county. That structure can make it easier to capture relevant parties consistently before a matter advances; it is not a substitute for an attorney’s review.

Searches account for aliases, married and trade names, common misspellings and phonetic matches, and can follow recorded corporate relationships such as parents, subsidiaries, general partners and sureties. This reaches beyond exact-name searches, though the affiliate search follows relationships recorded in the practice’s data.

A dated ledger preserves consultations that did not become matters, including their subject matter and whether confidential information was shared. Screening records capture the date, exact search terms, results, decision and user initials. The maker says signed records cannot be changed, with later amendments appended—useful for maintaining a decision history rather than silently rewriting one.

Small Firm and Firm Plus sync with Clio, MyCase, PracticePanther and Smokeball; Solo Practice instead includes CSV import and export. Firm Plus also includes API and webhook events. Data is held in encrypted databases in United States regions, encrypted in transit and at rest; support access requires a written request from the account owner and is logged. The subscription terms say practice data remains the practice’s property and is not used to train models or build a shared index.

Subscribers can cancel through the billing screen and export records before closure. After closure, the account remains read-only for 30 days before deletion. The stated availability target is 99.9 percent monthly, excluding scheduled maintenance announced at least 48 hours ahead. Support hours are 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Central, Monday to Friday; Solo Practice email receives a reply within one business day.

Pricing

All three plans are billed monthly per practice, with unlimited screenings. The choice is mainly about how many attorneys and staff need access, how much screening history and party data the practice needs to retain, and whether it needs practice-management sync or developer access.

• Solo Practice — $49 a month. One attorney, up to two staff seats, 5,000 party records and 18 months of screening records, plus CSV import and export. This is the entry plan for a solo attorney with a small team; its shorter history and capped party index matter for practices that need longer retention or expect their records to grow.
• Small Firm — $119 a month. Two attorneys, up to six staff seats, 25,000 party records and seven years of screening records, plus sync with Clio, MyCase, PracticePanther and Smokeball. It is the practical step up for a two-attorney practice that needs more seats, longer screening history or a supported sync rather than CSV exchange.
• Firm Plus — $249 a month. Up to five attorneys, unlimited staff seats and party index, seven years of screening records, plus API and webhook events. It suits a larger team that needs an unrestricted party index or system integrations; it costs more than twice Small Firm, so those capabilities should justify the jump.

Platforms

ConflictCheck is available on web, Android and iOS, and offers an API. The phone-working intake form gives mobile users a way to gather matter details, while the API and webhook events are included with Firm Plus rather than the two lower plans.

Who it's for

ConflictCheck is best suited to U.S. solo attorneys and small law firms that want structured prospective-matter intake, broader name and affiliate searches, and a recorded screening decision. Legal departments are also within the maker’s stated audience. Practices should look elsewhere if they need the software itself to make the professional conflict decision: ConflictCheck leaves that judgment to the licensed attorney of record.

Pros and cons

• Pros: Matching accounts for aliases, misspellings and phonetic variants, reducing reliance on exact-name searches.
• Pros: A dated prospective-client ledger and screening audit record give teams a traceable account of consultations and decisions.
• Pros: Small Firm combines seven-year screening retention with sync for four named practice-management products.
• Cons: Solo Practice retains screening records for 18 months, compared with seven years on the higher plans.
• Cons: Solo Practice has a 5,000-record cap and no listed practice-management sync; CSV import and export are its data-transfer option.
• Cons: The attorney must still determine whether a conflict exists and whether to accept the matter.

Verdict

Choose ConflictCheck if you are a solo attorney or small U.S. firm seeking structured intake, flexible name matching and a durable record of screening decisions. Its clearest reason to buy is the combination of related-party search and decision documentation, with Small Firm adding seven-year retention and practice-management sync. Look elsewhere if you need automated professional judgment, or if the Solo plan’s record cap and shorter retention would constrain your practice.
