Clio Work expands to New Zealand, Singapore, and Hong Kong, combining AI-powered practice management with authoritative legal intelligence.

Clio has launched Clio Work in New Zealand, Singapore, and Hong Kong to address the fragmentation that has traditionally slowed the legal industry. 

This launch marks a significant milestone for the Asia Pacific region with the introduction of the industry’s first Intelligent Legal Work Platform that bridges the business and practice of law through AI.

For solicitors and legal practitioners in these jurisdictions, Clio Work represents a fundamental shift in how legal technology supports the practice of law. Unlike generic AI tools that operate in isolation, Clio Work is purpose-built to understand the specific context of a firm’s cases. It integrates the documents, deadlines, and communications already stored within Clio’s Intelligent Legal Work Platform and pairs them with a vast library of verified legal authority.

“Legal practitioners have long navigated a landscape of disconnected tools that separate their case files from their legal research, and with Clio Work, we are closing that gap,” said Denise Farmer, General Manager, APAC, Clio. “We are bringing a true System of Action to New Zealand, Singapore, and Hong Kong. These are markets that demand high standards of efficiency and accuracy. Our platform understands the unique context of every matter and empowers solicitors to turn information into strategy instantly.”

A new standard for legal ops

Clio Work addresses the fragmentation that has historically slowed down legal firms. By connecting the business of law (legal operations) with the practice of law (legal research), Clio Work eliminates the need for practitioners to switch between multiple disconnected systems.

Key capabilities available to firms in New Zealand, Singapore, and Hong Kong include:

  • Context-Aware Intelligence: Clio Work proactively leverages matter data, including file notes, correspondence, and court dates, to surface insights and identify risks relevant to the specific case at hand.
  • Authoritative Legal Grounding: Powered by Clio Library, the world’s largest global legal dataset, Clio Work ensures every output is grounded in verified legal authority. The library includes comprehensive coverage across Commonwealth jurisdictions, ensuring practitioners can rely on citations that are accurate and court-ready.
  • Seamless Workflow: Insights generated in Clio Work funnel directly into firm workflows, allowing practitioners to turn research into drafted documents, client updates, and strategic advice without leaving the platform.

Defining the future of legal work

Clio believes the availability of Clio Work ensures that New Zealand, Singapore, and Hong Kong are driving the shift toward intelligent legal work. The platform goes beyond organizing work to actively advance it, setting a new benchmark for how legal services are delivered in the region.

“This is a pivotal moment for the APAC legal market,” continued Farmer. “By integrating a tool that interprets intent and delivers legally grounded output, we are empowering practitioners to look up from their screens and focus on the human connections and high-value advocacy that define the best of the legal profession.”
