Case Study: Torrey Pines Law Group achieves fivefold growth in staff, clients, and revenue with Clio

How Torrey Pines expanded their staff, revenue, and clients fivefold with Clio

Torrey Pines Law Group is a San Diego–based intellectual property and patent firm founded in 2013 that helps scientists and entrepreneurs bring innovations to market. At the start of 2020 the firm was a small team (3–4 people) facing an urgent client-driven challenge: clients pivoting to COVID-19 diagnostics and therapies needed rapid IP and regulatory support, so Torrey Pines had to quickly expand services (adding FDA regulatory and technology transactions) and scale its team and processes.

By adopting Clio’s practice management software, Torrey Pines streamlined client intake and conflicts checks, enabled secure document handling (128-bit encryption), leveraged 200+ integrations, and onboarded staff remotely in a day—creating a fast, scalable pipeline. The result: staff, clients, and revenue grew fivefold since 2020, Torrey Pines earned Clio’s “Best Growth Story” recognition, and the firm was able to help get critical therapies to market.
