Onit, a leading provider of business productivity and process management apps, today announced it has joined the Legal Cloud Computing Association (LCCA), a consortium of leading cloud computing providers.
The LCCA was created to facilitate the adoption of cloud computing among legal professionals and provide a unified and consistent voice for vendors in the legal cloud computing market. Additionally, the organization is responsible for collaborating and cooperating with Bar Associations and other policy-forming bodies in efforts to form policies and guidelines relating to the use of cloud computing in law practices; defining standards and best practices; and providing educational resources to attorneys and the broader legal community on cloud computing…
Onit joins the LCCA’s existing membership, consisting of leading cloud-based vendors including CalendarRules.com, Clio (Themis Solutions Inc.), Dialawg, DirectLaw, Inc., NetDocuments, Nextpoint, RealPractice, Inc., Rocket Matter and Total Attorneys.
"We’re excited to welcome Onit as the newest member of the LCCA," said Jack Newton, acting president of the LCCA and co-founder and CEO of Clio. "With Onit’s support we will continue to be a voice for the legal cloud community and help educate lawyers about cloud computing best practices, regulatory issues and cloud-based apps and technologies."
Created on December 15, 2010, the LCCA’s goal is to promote standards for cloud computing that are responsive to the needs of the legal profession and to enable lawyers to become aware of the benefits of computing technology through the development and distribution of education and informational resources.
