Clio

Clio is a legal practice management platform claiming over 150,000 users worldwide. It brings together file and contact management, calendar, time and disbursement tracking, hourly, fixed and outcome billing, online payments and a secure client portal. The European grid displayed by the publisher starts at €69 per user per month for Standard, then €89 for Premium, €109 for Pro (with Clio Draft included) and €129 for Expand (Clio Draft and Clio Grow included), in annual billing. Add-on modules are billed separately, between €39 and €49 per user per month based on the option. A free 7-day trial is offered without commitment.

Clio offers no French version: the European site, interface and support are in English, and the publisher's region selector covers only Australia, Canada, Ireland, UK and US. The product is thus built for common-law jurisdictions, with e-filing to US courts and client accounting modeled on Anglo-Saxon rules: the accounting obligations of a French law firm, starting with fund handling through CARPA, are not covered. Clio highlights over 300 integrations (Outlook, Gmail, Xero, Zoom notably), a Developer Hub with public API, unlimited document storage and five-day-a-week support. Per-user cost climbs quickly for a small firm once add-on modules are factored in.
