Clio Picks Up 3 TechnoLawyer SmallLaw Recommendations
In his just-published SmallLaw column “A Law Practice Survival Guide for the Involuntarily Solo“, legal technology expert Mazyar Hedayat identifies his top recommendations for the “suddenly solo” lawyer, ranging from Social Networks to Communications to Legal Research.
We’re honored Clio was selected as a recommendation for three categories, including:
- Software-as-a-Service: “Today you can manage complex recordkeeping, file management, billing, calendaring, task management, communications, and a dozen other vital functions on your iPhone. Ten years ago they said it would never happen, but we proved them wrong! Thanks, Google.”
- Billing: “Sure it takes money to make money. But why so much? Since the days of Red Gorilla (bonus if you remember that .com darling), Web-based billing has been the fevered dream of a madman. Or at least it was until a surge of do-it-yourself timers and time-keeping services hit the market.”
- Collaboration: “Collaboration’ sites let you display information like a Web host, share and exchange documents like Google Docs, and interact with one another like a social network. So why give them a separate category? Because most of the time these sites represent a useful compilation of features perfect for everything from ad hoc bar association groups to teams of lawyers working on a case with national scope.”
