Dublin, ROI, Jan. 29, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Client-Centered Law Firm, a new book authored by Clio CEO and Co-founder Jack Newton, launched yesterday in paperback and e-book formats and quickly became an Amazon bestseller. Highly anticipated by industry leaders, the book is being described by law school professors, practising lawyers, and leading thinkers in legal as a practical blueprint for law firms to follow in accessing the tremendously underserved legal market.
“I’m excited to see the positive reception the book has earned so far,” said Jack Newton, Clio CEO, Co-founder, and author of The Client-Centered Law Firm. “There is a multi-billion dollar opportunity waiting to be unlocked by a new generation of forward-thinking law firms. The more lawyers and legal professionals take a client-centered approach to running their firms, the better they’ll be able to access this opportunity, and the closer we’ll be to transforming the practice of law, for good.”
In The Client-Centered Law Firm, Newton offers a clear-eyed and timely look at the importance of a client-centered approach to running a law firm in today’s experience-driven world.
Newton covers the what, why, and how of running a client-centered practice—with examples from law firms leading this revolution as well as practical strategies for implementation—enabling law firms to access a tremendous untapped legal market. As reported by the World Justice Project, 59% of individuals in the United Kingdom experienced a legal problem in the past two years, but only 28% were able to access help with many (48%) seeking advice from a friend or family member. The Client-Centered Law Firm is a rallying call to unlock this enormous latent demand in the legal market by providing client-centered experiences, improving internal processes, and raising the bottom line.

Couch, Partner, Palace Law
