As the CEO and Co-founder of Clio and a pioneer in cloud-based legal technology, Jack Newton has spearheaded efforts to educate the legal community on the security, ethics, and privacy issues surrounding cloud computing, and has become a nationally recognized author and speaker on these topics.
He co-founded and is President of the Legal Cloud Computing Association (LCCA), a consortium of leading cloud computing providers with a mandate to help accelerate the adoption of cloud computing in the legal industry, and is the author of The Client-Centered Law Firm, a bestseller that’s helping law firms thrive in today’s experience-driven era.
Jack joined LegalTechLIVE to provide his experience as a startup founder and CEO. The conversation covered an extensive amount of information for founders from early stage onwards.
We covered the origin story of Clio, the two years of difficulties while they struggled to find funding during an economic recession. How getting the first million is far more difficult than getting $250 million in investment. Finally, we wrapped up with Jack’s description of the latent legal market and the opportunities for more companies in the legaltech space.
