In short

Hero Factory is a certified Clio consultant for Australian and New Zealand law firms. We cover Clio set-up, migration from legacy systems, matter and workflow design, adoption and optimisation — shaping Clio around your practice areas and reporting needs rather than forcing your firm to fit the software. Senior specialists throughout, charged by the hour.

— Who it's for

Built for firms at every stage with Clio.

New to Clio

Firms choosing or standing up Clio for the first time who want it configured around their practice, not a default template.

Already on Clio

Firms live on Clio but not getting the workflow, automation or reporting value the platform can deliver.

Migrating in

Firms moving to Clio from another system or spreadsheets, needing matters, contacts and history brought across cleanly.

What's included
  • Selection and scoping against your practice areas
  • Clio Manage and Clio Grow configuration
  • Matter, workflow and intake design
  • Migration from your current system
  • Document automation and templates
  • Custom Power BI dashboards and reporting
  • Team training and adoption support
  • Ongoing optimisation after go-live
What's not included
  • Reselling Clio licences — you buy those direct
  • Generic IT support unrelated to your practice system
  • Template configuration applied without discovery
  • One-and-done setups with no follow-through
— How it works

How a Clio engagement runs.

Discovery → Build → Adopt
01

Discovery and health check

We learn how your firm runs — practice areas, intake, workflows and reporting — before recommending anything.

02

Configuration and build

We configure Clio Manage and, where relevant, Clio Grow around your firm — matters, workflows, intake and documents.

03

Migration and validation

We map, test-migrate and validate your matters, contacts and documents before cut-over.

04

Training and adoption

Hands-on training so your people actually use the system rather than working around it.

05

Ongoing optimisation

We stay on after go-live, tuning workflows and reporting as the firm grows.

— Problems we solve

What firms come to us to fix.

Default

Clio running on out-of-the-box defaults that don't match how the firm actually works.

Leaky intake

New enquiries slipping through the cracks because intake and Clio Grow were never set up properly.

Manual

Documents and data re-keyed because automation and templates were never built.

Blind

No clear reporting on capacity, WIP or where time and money are going.

Certified across Actionstep, Clio and Smokeball. Details in our work are anonymised as standard; introductions to past clients are available on request. See a recent case study →

— FAQ

Questions firms ask us.

Are you a certified Clio consultant?

Yes. Hero Factory's consultants are Clio certified and work with firms across Australia and New Zealand.

How much does a Clio set-up or migration cost?

It depends on scope — firm size, practice areas, data to migrate and automation required. We charge by the hour and you can buy time as a flat rate, a discounted bundle, or an ongoing partnership. A discovery call gives you a clear estimate first.

Can you migrate our data into Clio?

Yes. We migrate matters, contacts and documents into Clio from other practice management systems and from spreadsheets, validating integrity before cut-over.

Do you set up Clio Grow as well as Clio Manage?

Yes. Where intake and client growth matter to the firm, we configure Clio Grow alongside Clio Manage so enquiries flow through to matters without manual re-entry.

Do you help firms already on Clio?

Yes — much of our Clio work is optimising existing setups: finishing workflows, adding automation, building reporting and improving adoption.
