Switching from Clio

Leave Clio without leaving anything behind. Free assisted migration.

Bring contacts, matters, unbilled time, trust balances and open invoices across from Clio's data export. We help for free and reconcile your first month with you.

What moves across

Run each report as of the same day, usually a month end you've already reconciled in Clio. Excel or CSV both work.

Billed history and past journals stay in Clio. Keep PDF copies of your final trust listing, trial balance and receivables listing with your records.

How the move works

Nothing is written until you have seen the preview, and re-running never duplicates anything.

    Pick a conversion date

    A month end you've reconciled in Clio. Every report is run as of that day.

  2. 02
    Export your reports

    5 reports from Clio, as Excel or CSV.

  3. 03
    Upload and preview

    We check every row: missing clients, bad amounts, unknown matters.

  4. 04
    Run, then reconcile together

    Balances carry forward on the conversion date. We reconcile your first month with you.

Where Clio is stronger today

  • Integration ecosystem. Clio's app directory is much larger than ours.

Questions about moving

Is there a contract?

No. Every paid plan is month to month and you can cancel any time from Plan & billing. You can export your data whether you stay or leave.

Can I bring my trust balances over?

Yes. The importer records each client's trust balance as a balance carried forward on your conversion date — not as a new deposit — so your client trust listing in TodoLegal starts from the same numbers as your last listing in the old system. You then reconcile your first month against the bank statement as usual.

What about invoices clients still owe?

Outstanding invoices come in as opening receivables, not new revenue, so your income isn't counted twice. HST on them was already accounted for in your previous system.

Do you replace my accountant?

No. TodoLegal keeps your trust records, invoices and general ledger in order, but your accountant still prepares your tax returns and year-end, and you remain responsible for your Law Society filings. Most accountants find the reports easier to work with.

How long does switching take?

Most small practices import in an afternoon: export files from Clio, LEAP, uLaw or PCLaw, upload them, check the column mapping and the preview, and run. Re-running is safe — nothing imported twice.
