In 2008, Jack Newton and Rian Gauvreau founded Clio with a simple but powerful realization: the legal profession was being left behind by the cloud computing revolution that was transforming every other industry. Lawyers were trapped in a world of paper files, disparate software systems, and inefficient practices that made it harder to serve clients effectively. They saw an opportunity to modernize legal practice through cloud-based technology that would be accessible, affordable, and transformative.
What started as a small Canadian startup has grown into the world's leading provider of cloud-based legal technology. Today, Clio powers law firms of all sizes across the globe, from solo practitioners to large enterprises. Headquartered in Greater Vancouver with teams spanning Calgary, Toronto, Dublin, Manchester, and Sydney, Clio continues to set the global standard for innovation in legal tech. The company's mission remains clear: to transform the legal experience for all by equipping lawyers with secure, intuitive tools that help them work more effectively, grow profitably, and deliver exceptional client service.
