LEAP pricing in NZ, explained properly

LEAP's New Zealand site carries no pricing page at all, only a demo booking. What that means for a small firm working out the real cost.

The short version: LEAP publishes no price at all for New Zealand. As at the 22 September 2026 check, leaplegalsoftware.com/nz carries no pricing page, its old NZ domain redirects there and returns a page-not-found result, and the main navigation offers only Free Demonstration and System Audit as next steps. No review site checked lists a starting figure either. What follows is what LEAP itself says about the product, and the build-on-Microsoft-365 alternative for a firm that wants a number today.

What's actually public

LEAP's New Zealand site describes one connected platform covering matters, documents, accounting, client collaboration, legal content and support, built with New Zealand-specific workflows, plus exclusive integrations named LawY, InfoTrack, By Lawyers and LawConnect. That copy carries no dollar figure, no tier name and no per-user rate anywhere in it. The only calls to action on the whole site are Free Demonstration and System Audit, both sales-assisted, and the footer links out to LEAP Global sites for Canada, the US, the UK, Ireland and Australia rather than a New Zealand price list.

leaplegalsoftware.com/nz/pricing/ returns a page-not-found result, checked 22 September 2026, on a site that otherwise looks fully built out. That's a stronger version of the hidden-price pattern than a vendor who at least names its tiers behind a "Get pricing" button: LEAP's NZ site doesn't name a tier structure publicly at all.

Why a legal-specific vendor sells this way

Practice management software for law firms is priced against seat count, matter volume and which of LEAP's bundled integrations a firm actually wants switched on, and a vendor selling that mix usually prices it in a scoping call rather than a rate card. That's a defensible sales model, and a genuinely harder one to shop against in an afternoon. This post exists to say plainly that LEAP has no published number, rather than let a reader assume one is buried somewhere on the site they haven't found yet. Actionstep sells the same category the same way, quote only, no figure published anywhere.

Who this suits, and who it doesn't

It suits a firm that already leans toward a dedicated, NZ-configured legal practice platform and is happy to book a demo to get a number. It doesn't suit a firm trying to shortlist three vendors on price before picking up the phone, since LEAP is the one name in this series where even the tier names aren't public, let alone a figure. How it compares side by side with Actionstep and Smokeball is worked through in Actionstep vs LEAP vs Smokeball.

Or build the register on what you already pay for

For a firm already on Microsoft 365, matter intake, document handling and fee tracking can be built directly on the licence already paid for: a matter and fee register on Dataverse, NZ$32.40 a user a month, with Power BI Pro at NZ$22.60 for the two or three people who read the report. A build like that runs $8,000 to $18,000, and you know the number before you start, which is more than LEAP's own site will tell you. It does not replace trust accounting. A Power Platform build covers matters, time, documents and reporting; the trust ledger has to stay in a product that meets the Lawyers and Conveyancers Act (Trust Account) Regulations. The full market comparison is in what law practice management software costs a small NZ firm.

Common questions

How much does LEAP cost in New Zealand?

As at the 22 September 2026 check, LEAP's New Zealand site (leaplegalsoftware.com/nz) has no pricing page at all: leaplegalsoftware.co.nz/pricing/ redirects into the NZ site and returns a page-not-found result, and the main navigation carries no pricing link, only Free Demonstration. No New Zealand or Australian review site checked (Capterra NZ included) lists a starting price either. The only way to get a number is to book the demo.

Does LEAP offer a free trial in New Zealand?

Not that the New Zealand site publishes. The only self-serve action on leaplegalsoftware.com/nz is booking a Free Demonstration or a System Audit, both sales-assisted, not a trial account you set up yourself.

Is LEAP the same company across New Zealand and Australia?

Yes. LEAP Legal Software runs a New Zealand site alongside Australia, the UK, the US, Canada and Ireland, listed under LEAP Global in its own footer. The NZ site is a fully separate marketing site from the Australian one, but neither publishes a price; both route to a demo booking.
