Last May, Clio ran a #Clioday contest asking lawyers how they used the time they saved because of Clio law practice management solutions. After much fanfare, a winner was picked. Haley Austin. I watched her video (which her daughter filmed and edited and you can see below) and really wanted to do a guest lecture with her because she is an army veteran, mother of four, and a very compelling person. I got this just from the video. However, I then met her in person at the Clio Cloud Conference in September and quite simply, she’s a powerhouse! If she does not define a Savvy Solo, someone who can inspire you to go for it no matter the challenges, I’m not sure anyone can.
