At LexBlog, we’ve always viewed the author or publisher of a legal blog post as a signal of authority—not just for the individual post, but for the entire publication on which the author publishes.
When a blog post is clearly published by one or two legal professionals, it conveys something vital: expertise, authorship, and a willingness
I mention AI and the law, and I am apt to be jumped by a lawyer telling me that AI is not to be trusted—look at the reports of hallucinations.
Get to legal blogs and things get much scarier. How could one find a legal blog credible? Put thousands of legal blogs together, in the
If you believe what Aneesh Raman, the Chief Economic Opportunity Officer at LinkedIn, has to say, there are some stressful days ahead for law grads—this year and next.
In an op-ed in The New York Times, Raman cited junior tech developers, first-year law associates, junior paralegals, and retail service people as among those most
I’ve run into my fair share of technical snags over the years, but there’s something particularly humbling about being stumped by a script that won’t show up on the homepage.
