Confido Legal + Prima: Streamlined Payments Meet Smarter Case Management

We’re excited to announce our new integration with Prima.Law, the powerful, cloud-based case management platform built by lawyers for lawyers. Now, when you run your firm on Prima, you can accept compliant electronic payments directly inside your case management system—no more cash-handling headaches, no more juggling tools.

 

Why this integration matters

For many firms—especially in immigration law—payment plans are the norm. Prima already offered a flexible payment plan wizard that lets you set amounts, down payments, schedules, and automatically generate promissory notes. With the Confido Legal integration, those plans can now be funded via secure, compliant credit card, debit card, and ACH payments without leaving Prima.

This means:

  • Fewer missed payments thanks to automated reminders and easy online payment

  • Built-in trust accounting compliance, so funds land in the right account every time

  • Optional surcharging (where permitted) to pass card fees to the client

  • Reduced cash risk—no more lost deposits, counterfeit bills, or staff theft

  • Time saved for your team by eliminating manual deposit posting

As James Betzold, founder of Prima, put it, “We shouldn’t be carrying huge cash deposits to the bank. It’s inefficient, risky, and unnecessary when clients can pay securely online.”

What’s new at Prima

Payments are only part of the story. Prima has been evolving far beyond its immigration roots to serve multiple practice areas, adding:

  • AI-powered case review that flags eligibility issues, missing documents, and filing fee errors before the attorney review—saving hours per matter

  • Case Management Board for high-volume practices, offering powerful filtering, reporting, and progress tracking

  • Package assembly that auto-generates paginated, indexed, and bates-stamped filings

  • Expanding form libraries beyond immigration

  • Robust security architecture leveraging AWS, Cloudflare, and mandatory MFA

James and his team are already working on the next wave of AI features: automated plan-of-action creation from incoming documents, intelligent client reminders, and even multilingual AI phone answering.

Get started

If you’re a Prima user, you can enable Confido Legal today and start accepting compliant online payments directly in your existing workflows.

If you’re not yet on Prima, now’s the perfect time to explore a case management platform that combines modern automation, deep practice-specific tools, and flexible payments in one place.
