ExhibitPrep vs PracticePanther
Which tool is better for legal exhibit stamping?
See the side-by-side comparison.
The honest take
PracticePanther and ExhibitPrep solve different problems, so a head-to-head "winner" doesn't really exist. PracticePanther runs your practice — billing, calendaring, client communication. If exhibit stamping were your only gap, paying $59/month for PracticePanther to fill it wouldn't make sense — but if you're already a PracticePanther customer, the fix isn't switching tools, it's adding a $4.99 stamping step before you file.

Common Questions
Does PracticePanther stamp exhibits?
No. PracticePanther is billing and case management software — it stores your documents but has no exhibit numbering, stamping, or court-ready formatting tools. Firms using PracticePanther for practice management still need a separate step to prepare exhibits for filing, which is where ExhibitPrep comes in.
Why compare a practice management tool to an exhibit stamping tool?
They're not really substitutes for each other. This page exists because attorneys researching "legal software" often evaluate both categories side by side. If you already use PracticePanther, you'll still need something like ExhibitPrep for the exhibit-stamping step it doesn't cover.
Can I stamp exhibits inside PracticePanther?
No. There's no built-in way to add sequential exhibit numbers or stamps to a PDF in PracticePanther. Most firms export the document, stamp it elsewhere, and re-upload it to the matter.
