Hear from our CEO and Founder Jack Newton
At Clio, we believe—on a foundational level—that we have a responsibility to change the world around us with our words, our choices, and our actions. We envision a world in which our legal and judicial systems promote justice in the truest sense of the word—a world in which it is easy for anyone who needs legal services to access them; for lawyers to have the freedom to practice the way they want; and for underrepresented groups in our society to get the advocacy they deserve.
Being the market leader for legal technology means that we have an added responsibility to set the tone for the next generation—and to help ensure that the technology shaping legal experiences is also serving the greater good.
By focusing on the legal experience, Clio’s mission encompasses every stakeholder within our legal and judicial systems—from legal professionals to legal organizations, clients, and consumers. This encompasses more than improving our software products; it’s about the larger impact we can have on the legal experience, on a global scale.
At the core of our philosophy is the belief that the future of legal services is cloud-based and client-centered, and that fostering these advancements will drive positive social change. By centralizing and simplifying business operations for law firms and enabling legal professionals to connect with clients anywhere, anytime, we can transform the ways in which legal services are sought out and delivered. This is an opportunity for a paradigm shift, requiring lawyers to adopt a client-centered approach to pricing, packaging, and delivering legal services. We believe doing this will break down barriers to legal services for consumers and make it easier for clients and law firms to work together more thoughtfully and effectively. It’s time to create a more inclusive legal community and a more equitable legal system.
On behalf of everyone at Clio, we are thrilled to be on this journey of transforming the legal experience for all—with you.
Sincerely,
Learn how we are supporting:
We are centralizing and simplifying business operations for law firms
We have seen a massive adoption of cloud-based technology as a means for lawyers to keep their firms running smoothly and continue to support their clients in a rapidly-changing environment. To best support lawyers in running their firms and supporting their clients, we are taking a holistic approach to building solutions that are both cloud-based and client-centered.-
Supporting the industry’s move to the cloud
Data from our 2020 Legal Trends Report, shows a massive adoption of cloud-based technology among law firms, with the vast majority (85%) using software to manage their practice, and 79% of lawyers relying on cloud-based technology to store their data. By way of our 24/5 support team, migrations team, and everyone at Clio, we are ensuring legal professionals’ move to the cloud is a successful one.
Planning for the future
This shift to the cloud isn’t temporary: it’s the future reality for the industry and a critical factor if firms want to survive and thrive as we build a better normal. We actively invest resources into understanding what the future holds, and building solutions that will support it.
We are creating new solutions for lawyers to better serve their clients
We enable law firms to better communicate and collaborate between staff and with clients, wherever they are located. We believe that the adoption of remote technology will remain a lasting staple among legal service providers.-
Enabling remote work
With integrations like Zoom, Dialpad, and Microsoft Teams, we’re equipping firms with the right legal collaboration tools that help improve communication and visibility, and that take in-person and offline processes online—helping firms grow their business from anywhere.
