📈
Practice administrators
You're reporting on monthly intake volumes and firm growth metrics, but your case tracking records only update when someone manually copies website submissions, so the matter counts you're reviewing are always hours behind — with this integration, every new form entry lands in your legal practice management platform instantly and your reports stay current.
Intake coordinators
You need to act fast when prospective clients submit consultation requests, and you find out too late because submissions sit in form inboxes until someone checks them — automating both apps means every inquiry creates a matter in Clio immediately and your team responds without delay.
🤝
Managing partners
You answer to firm stakeholders and clients who expect immediate case setup and progress updates, but manual data entry causes bottlenecks in client onboarding — connecting these apps means every form submission generates matter files and client contacts instantly so operations run smoothly.
🔄
Legal receptionists
The volume of daily client intake forms is too high for anyone to keep up by hand without making data entry errors across systems — this integration means every client submission populates your practice management software automatically and human error disappears.
⚖️
Associate attorneys
You own the next step in client onboarding and depend on intake staff to hand over complete consultation details before you can start work — automating both apps means every submitted form creates structured tasks and matter notes in Clio the moment the client clicks submit.
🗂️
Compliance officers
You need a reliable audit history of client intakes and keep finding gaps where form submissions were never logged into case management files — integrating these apps means every single submission creates a permanent record in Clio so your compliance logs remain complete.
