Clio’s $900M raise, announced by Jack Newton on July 23, 2024, underscores the legal industry's shift towards tech-driven innovation and the decline of the billable hour. As AI and modern practices gain traction, this investment signals a strong belief in the future of the Modern Law Firm. Having championed this shift with the launch of Frank Fee in 2020 and AltFee software, I welcome this progress. Listen to Jack's BNN Bloomberg interview for more insights.
