Winkelman Law Firm Attorneys and Staff Attend “Clio Con” in Nashville, Tennessee (October 2022.)

Clio Cloud Conference is considered to be the best legal technology conference of the year, gathering the brightest, most-forward thinking minds in law and technology.  By incorporating the newest technology into the practice of law the client experience is better from start to finish and efficient representation and counsel is a benefit our clients experience each day.  Many of our clients are family and friends and for those who are referred to us or are new to seeking legal assistance; we strive to meet and exceed your expectations by treating you like family as well.  Experience exceptional representation and counsel by experienced attorneys and utilization of some of the most modern technology that has become more common in the world we conduct business and live in today.  In addition to learning directly from the creators of technology from all over the world, we had an opportunity to review our law practice operations and evaluate client feedback to offer even better client services.  Clio Con was inspiring, enlightening and of course spending part of the week in Nashville was entertaining.  

Winkelman Law Firm Clients Have New Secure Website Access

Our clients can now access their client portal directly from our webpage as well as through our mobile app, Clio-for-Clients.  Simply press the button at the top of our homepage for client portal access to shared final documents and to share information through a secure link with your attorneys on your own time.  As we all know, sometimes your work needs to be done in the middle of the night, or the earliest morning hours of the day.  Just upload documents, send messages and receive documents completed while you were unavailable.  We also added the client ability to make online payments on invoices or into your trust account 24/7 using the “Pay Online” button on the top of our website.  Clients asked for the options and we delivered.  Thank you for the feedback and all of the kudos provided after our first few clients used these new client resources.
