With a valuation of over $1bn, Clio sees its unicorn status and the rising acceptance of cloud-based legal tech software as a new chapter for the legal services industry.
Add Clio to the growing list of $1bn-valued legal tech unicorns. Today, the cloud-based practice management technology provider announced it secured $110m during a Series E round at a $1.6bn valuation.
The funding round, which was led by investment firm T. Rowe Price Associates with participation from OMERS Growth Equity, comes less than two years after Clio’s $250m Series D investment round in September 2019.
