A few introductions are in order. I’m very happy to present to you the team of Web editors and reporters whom I’ve charged with making our website, americanlawyer.com, plus our daily news feed, The Am Law Daily, more engaging, informative and useful to you—in short, even more of a must-read.
These journalists, a few others we’re looking to hire and in fact the whole newsroom will be helping expand our online coverage to focus on more news and trends about the business of law—including, for example, more nuts-and-bolts coverage of your biggest costs (such as real estate), sources of revenue (practice areas that are gaining steam or declining) and other management challenges. Expansion also means offering much more of our exclusive survey data on a regular basis, including interactive graphics, charts and the like, to better help you benchmark your firm. And we’ll strive to tell you not only which firms got the big deals, but why: the relationships and personal histories that led to the business.
