Career
When Jack Newton co-founded Clio with his childhood friend Rian Gauvreau in 2008, they were struck by how outdated the legal industry seemed, reminiscent of decades past. Law firms in prime locations were still filled with paper files, fax machines hummed constantly, and lawyers often felt overwhelmed and overworked. Despite the internet revolution, the legal field remained largely untouched. Over the past 15 years, Clio has emerged as a leader in modernizing legal practices, offering efficient online solutions. However, Newton and Gauvreau didn’t set out to revolutionize daily legal operations.
Instead, their journey began with Newton shoveling snow for neighbors and realizing the power of addressing people’s needs. Newton’s early interest in computers and entrepreneurship led him to start businesses even as a child, such as a snow-shoveling service in Edmonton. Although many assume Newton is a lawyer, he’s actually a technologist, trained in computer science and machine learning. After gaining experience in software development, he and Gauvreau decided to launch Clio, guided by their understanding of market demands.
