10 Reasons to Attend ClioCon

Why you should attend the number one conference in legal

For 2026, we’re focused on providing ClioCon attendees with the actionable skills and edge needed to drive new levels of success for your practice, career, and clients. Below are ten reasons you can’t miss it.

1. Grow your network

Every year, Clio welcomes the best and brightest in legal (and beyond) to ClioCon. You’ll get the chance to network with thousands of legal professionals from around the world who are passionate about innovation, building successful law firms, and client-centered thinking.

What’s more, you can network with fellow attendees through meals, breaks, and wellness activities, or by unwinding together at daily After Dark events!

2. Listen to inspiring keynotes

Every year, we seek out keynote speakers who will change your perspective on the practice of law. In 2025, we were absolutely thrilled to be joined by psychotherapist and bestselling author Esther Perel, legal technology and AI pioneer Professor Richard Susskind OBE, KC (Hon), and legal reform activist Jon-Adrian “JJ” Velazquez. Stay tuned for announcements regarding our 2026 keynote speakers—ClioCon attendees can expect a conference experience unlike any other.

3. Get a breakdown of the Legal Trends Report

You heard it here first, the Legal Trends Report is back, and ClioCon attendees got an exclusive breakdown by our in-house legal expert, Joshua Lenon. Clio’s annual Legal Trends Report has become one of the most widely-anticipated publications in the legal industry and a must-read for legal professionals.

4. Earn valuable CLE and CPD credits

Need to catch up on CLE or CPD credits? We’ve got you covered! Every year, we seek eligibility for CLE and CPD credits for lawyers licensed to practice law in the United States and Canada.

We’ll be releasing more details on CLE and CPD accreditation in the coming months, but it’s safe to say that there’s no better way to get your credits in while keeping up with the latest legal developments (and having fun while doing it)!

5. Participate in hands-on workshops

Past attendees told us they wanted more hands-on workshops, and we listened! This year, you’ll have plenty of opportunities to develop practical skills at ClioCon. These sessions will help you market your services, improve client communications, and much more.

6. Gain early access to Clio’s newest product releases and feature updates

ClioCon is where our community gets a first look at what’s next. Attendees enjoy early access to new product releases, feature updates, and exclusive sneak peeks into the future of Clio. It’s also your chance to connect directly with our team, share ideas, and explore what’s possible for the years ahead. In 2025 attendee’s got the first look at our intelligent legal work platform, Clio Work. Along with many other exciting updates!

“With Clio Work, we’re launching a new era of legal productivity,” said Jack Newton, Clio’s CEO and Founder. “By integrating vLex’s world-class legal research library and Vincent AI directly into the Clio platform, we’re giving legal professionals one intelligent workspace to manage cases and execute AI-powered workflows, all without switching systems”.

7. Engage with thoughtfully selected legal technology partners

Each year, Clio finds the best and brightest in legal (and beyond) to take the ClioCon stage, but it’s also important for us to bring on partners and vendors who share in our mission to transform the legal experience for all and deliver meaningful results for attendees.

At ClioCon, we work hard and play hard. After a full day of learning and networking, join us at Clio After Dark for live entertainment, light bites, and beverages. It’s the perfect chance to keep the conversations going, make new connections, and experience the fun side of ClioCon.

9. Decompress with daily health and wellness sessions

If you want to do the best work of your life, you need to take care of yourself first. ClioCon 2025 attendees were able to enjoy a variety of health and wellness sessions to stay on top of their health. From yoga and sound baths to supportive group sessions, and puppies! You’ll find plenty of ways to recharge and restore your energy.

Final notes on ClioCon

We’re so excited to welcome you back to ClioCon in 2026. 

And, if you need further convincing, check out our post on why every lawyer should attend a legal tech conference.

But don’t just take our word for it. As Sarah Gold of Gold Law Firm said last year,

“The Cloud Cloud Conference without fail every year recharges me and makes me excited about practicing law again. And with this last year being particularly tough, it’s just what I needed.”

See you in Boston!
