The LAWCLERK Team is busy preparing to travel to San Diego for the annual Clio Cloud Conference on October 21-22, 2019. If you’ll be there, please sure to visit our booth to say hello!
One of the many awesome features behind LAWCLERK and our nationwide network of talented freelance lawyers is our integration with Clio. The integration allows your LAWCLERK account and your Clio account to communicate with each other. After you integrate (which takes mere seconds) you can sync deadlines, tasks, time entries and documents between the accounts. Since the integration launched in August 2018 it has proven to be a major timesaver for tech savvy attorneys across the country.
“We absolutely love that LAWCLERK and Clio have partnered to provide such a valuable tool for our law firm,” said Vincent Van Ho, Owner of the Law Office of Vincent Van Ho, P.C.. “The tasks of project coordination, task management and time capturing are much easier with the integration between the two platforms. By using Clio’s addition of LAWCLERK, our office saves significant time on these tasks so we can spend more time devoted to the crux of our business – practicing law.”
Connecting your LAWCLERK and Clio accounts takes just a few clicks. Log in to your LAWCLERK account and click on the menu bar in the upper left-hand corner of your LAWCLERK dashboard and select “Connect to Clio” to start the process. This 37 second video shows just how easy it is to integrate your LAWCLERK and Clio accounts.
Once you’ve set up the integration, you’ll be able to post a new project to the LAWCLERK marketplace and sync it to a Clio Matter. Syncing a LAWCLERK project to a Clio Matter will enable you to streamline deadlines, tasks, documents and billing. You will select the Clio Matter in step two of posting a new project. This video gives step by step instructions on posting a project to a related Clio Matter.
Once the project is posted, all project deadlines set in LAWCLERK are automatically synched to the associated Clio Matter to help make sure no deadlines are missed! Check out the various ways to access and view your LAWCLERK project deadlines in Clio via this video tutorial.
After you’ve posted a new project on LAWCLERK, the project is automatically created as a Task in the associated Clio Matter. Here’s a guide how to access and view the Task in Clio.
If your project involves many documents, this integration is going to save you a ton of time. You can now import documents directly to the LAWCLERK documents library from your Clio Documents file to provide the Lawclerk with the information they need to complete the project.
Once work is completed on a LAWCLERK project, the Lawclerk uploads their preliminary or final document submissions to the LAWCLERK document library and those document files can be exported to the Documents files in the associated Clio Matter.
Perhaps the coolest feature of the integration is that it allows the Lawclerk to enter their time spent working on a project directly in the LAWCLERK dashboard. These time entries are then automatically synced to your Clio Matter for billing purposes! Check out this video to see how to view your Lawclerk’s time records at any time using the integration.
