Clark Hill Completes Move from Enterprise to 3E in the Cloud by Elite

International law firm Clark Hill has completed its migration to the cloud version of 3E, a market-leading financial and practice management solution from Elite, marking the latest milestone in a partnership which has spanned more than three decades.

First established in 1890, Am Law 200 law firm Clark Hill offers its clients an exceptional team, dedicated to the delivery of outstanding service. Across 29 locations and with more than 750 lawyers spanning the United States, Ireland, and Mexico, the firm has 117 different practice areas which are rated as Tier 1 by U.S. News & World Report and Best Lawyers. It partners with its clients to help them reach and exceed their business goals.

A user of Elite’s Enterprise solution since 1994, Clark Hill transitioned to 3E in the cloud to take advantage of its highly configurable platform with industry-leading security, advanced analytics, and complete mobility. 3E is the first cloud-native software as a service (SaaS) financial and practice management solution for law firms—built on the market-leading Microsoft Azure platform—which enables firms to streamline and automate tasks, drive operational efficiency, and make timely, accurate business decisions.

As well as moving to 3E in the cloud, the firm has also adopted an array of fully integrated Elite solutions which will deliver significant value and efficiency to its business. These include:

  • 3E Data Insights, which enables rich interactive reporting to provide timely, valuable information for better and faster decision-making

  • Advanced Financial Solutions, a Microsoft Excel toolset with powerful reporting capabilities on productivity, efficiency, and profitability

  • eBillingHub, Elite’s pioneering electronic billing solution built specifically for the legal industry

Finally, as part of their migration to 3E in the cloud, the firm collaborated closely with Elite to effectively transition from Elite’s Paperless Proforma solution to 3E Proforma—streamlining and transforming the firm’s proforma review process. The result is a seamlessly connected lawyer and biller experience in the cloud, bringing together the right information from other areas such as 3E Data Insights, all now available at the lawyers’ fingertips.

“Elite has been at the core of how our firm operates for many years, so when we considered the best technology platform for our future, moving to the cloud with 3E made absolute sense,” says Phil Ross, Chief Operating Officer at Clark Hill. “We worked very closely with the Elite team to ensure a smooth and effective transition, and their responsiveness and ingenuity proved extremely valuable to help us meet our unique challenges and desired outcomes. As a result, we now have even greater insight and powerful capabilities than ever before and an incredible platform for future innovation.”
