NEW YORK -- The American Lawyer, the leading legal magazine focused on the world's largest law firms, will formally launch its new Web site at www.americanlawyer.com on April 30. The site will debut with extended online coverage of the results of the 2008 Am Law 100 rankings including Web-exclusive charts projecting profitability of these firms for the year 2025. Editor in chief Aric Press will preview and evaluate this year's Am Law 100 results in a free webinar at 3:00 p.m. ET on Tuesday, April 29. To register for the webinar, visit www.americanlawyer.com/amlaw100webinar.> The new site will feature daily news coverage of the legal business, including breaking news reporting on developments at the world's leading law firms, and on the lawyers and professionals working in and with those firms. News will be spotlighted in The Am Law Daily, focusing each day on topics related to "The Firms," "The Talent," "The Work," "The Management," "The Score" and "The Life."
Online subscribers and registered users will receive a free daily e-newsletter highlighting top stories. A second e-newsletter, focused on litigation news, will launch in June. The site will also feature full access to each month's print issue and a searchable content archive of past issues. Current issues and the site archives will be available free to registered users until July 31.
Upcoming online coverage will include "Managing the Downturn," a regular feature exploring how different law firms and individuals are handling business slowdowns; extended online reporting on "Big Bankruptcies," "Big Deals" and "Big Suits;" and an examination of expanding maternity leave policies at many firms, as well as Q&As with prominent industry figures.
"Our Web site is a new publication for us. We plan to bring to it the same vigor, fairness and judgment that have been hallmarks of the print magazine. We hope this will prove valuable to our audience--old and new," said Aric Press, editor in chief.
