Frequently Asked Questions

Can a firm run both Clio and MyCase during transition?

Yes. Many firms run a phased migration and use support staff to maintain data hygiene, workflow continuity, and deadline reliability while systems overlap.

What should be audited before switching support models?

Audit intake stages, billing workflows, matter status consistency, and reporting dependencies first so the transition does not break daily execution.
