Before initiating the import, ensure your client data is in a compatible format. Typically, Clio accepts CSV files. Organize your data with clear headers like 'First Name', 'Last Name', 'Email', etc.

Consistency is key. Ensure date formats, phone numbers, and addresses follow a uniform structure. This aids in a smoother import and reduces discrepancies later on.

3. Utilize Clio's Migration Templates

Clio offers migration templates to simplify the process. These templates are designed to match Clio's data fields, ensuring a perfect fit.

4. Filter and Convert if Necessary

Before importing, you might need to filter, export, or convert contacts to ensure they align with Clio's requirements.
