Lately, the legal blogosphere has been swamped with upstart practice group blogs touting expertise and focusing on case reviews, summaries and new court rules. Among the legal blogs that have speckled the landscape are Littler Mendelson’s global immigration counsel blog, Jackson Lewis’ OSHA blog, Epstein Becker & Green’s Florida employment and immigration law blog, Bryan Cave’s art law blog, and Akin Gump’s Supreme Court matters and analysis blog.
So when senior associate Robert F. Chapski and partner Eileen Burkhalter Smith of Nashville’s Waller Lansden Dortch & Davis decided to join the legal blogsphere, they wanted to offer more than topic summaries and legal analysis for partners. They decided to target an entire demographic with a different kind of content. “We did not see any firm blogs targeted to help and provide information for young lawyers” said Chapski. “Even abovethelaw.com (ATL) is a more gossip- and news-oriented blog. We wanted to do something different and provide entertainment, information, education and a networking vehicle for younger lawyers and law students.”
