Why Data Literacy Matters

Data is everywhere, and the power of data analysis is coming to law firms too. With advancements in data collection, data analysis, and business intelligence tools, many organizations now have the tools they need make more data-driven decisions—but many law firms aren’t taking advantage. We spoke with Billie Tarascio, owner of Modern Law, and George Psiharis, COO at Clio, about why many law firms have been slow to start using data to make better business decisions—and about the benefits for firms that are data-driven. Billie’s seen plenty of positive changes at her firm since she started using data to guide her decision making, and both her and George shared plenty of tips for firms just starting out on their own data-driven journeys.
