Dow Jones Description

The American Lawyer's trailblazing features on attorneys and their work, as well as its signature surveys, are eagerly awaited and avidly read every month by the legal community around the nation and around the world. The American Lawyer is the nation's leading monthly magazine for lawyers. Our mission is to cover the business-- profits, losses, mergers, strategies, and spectacular failures--of the most successful law firms in the nation as well as their practices--the biggest deals and cases, the inside story of who won, who lost and why. Like other great magazines, The American Lawyer is provocative and entertaining. But more than that, our data and features have served for 25 years as the standard by which the country's most important lawyers measure themselves. Our goal is to provide the highest quality journalism about the nation's most important profession. We want our audience's attention--and respect. Our reports help set the profession's agenda. Each month, we break news about the best lawyers and the biggest firms. Who's getting the business and why? Who's committed an ethical foul, suffered a wounding departure, failed a long time client? Who merged too soon, expanded too slowly? What are the best--and worst--practices for advancing women and racial minorities, training and retaining the most promising young lawyers, building or buying a firm? We give clear-eyed reporting and analysis to an audience that won't settle for anything less...
