In celebration of the release of ABC Legal’s app for Clio Matters, we’ll be publishing a 3-part series explaining the integration, including an overview that explains why legal professionals will love this integration, how the ABC Legal app for Clio works, and more about Clio, a cloud-based case management system.
We're hosting a webinar as part of our introductory celebration. Join us for a quick, 20-minute presentation where we'll discuss the integration and all you need to get started!
Today, we’re talking about the release of the application and the two connected platforms - ABC Legal and Clio.
Service of Process, From ABC Legal, In Clio
The ABC Legal app was released in Clio in January 2023. The integration streamlines service of process for Clio users, dramatically simplifying how they can order service of process for legal cases.
The ABC Legal app integration allows users to order service of process for their cases directly from Clio Matters. The app connects the two platforms via a secure API, allowing everything a legal professional needs for service of process to be available in their case management system, from invoices and proof of service documents to real-time updates regarding service status.
It’s service of process - optimized for Clio.
