Identifying trends in any industry is vital for forecasting where your law practice may be going and where you want to take it. Clio is a company specializing in legal software, and they also release a yearly report to pinpoint trends in the legal field.
This episode of Your Law Firm is a Business. Take It to the Next Level is part two of a deep dive into Clio’s Legal Trends Report. We’re recognizing and discussing items that stand out and analyzing what they may mean for lawyers in the future.
