  • Deactivated users will not be able to login to the system.

  • Deactivated users will not impact your subscription - you will not be charged for them.

To archive a firm user:

  • Open the Settings page

  • In the left-hand menu, click Firm Users.

  • Click the name of the person you'd like to deactivate.

  • You will now be on their contact details page. Scroll to the bottom of their photo and click the Deactivate User button.


MyCase will display a warning dialogue asking you to Cancel or Deactivate the user. To continue with the process of archiving the user, click on Next: Confirm Deactivation.
