About
the Insider newsletter Our
flagship title is the subscription-only industry
newsletter Legal Technology Insider, which
was recently described by Richard Susskind
in The Times newspaper as "the invaluable
monthly whose bright orange pages adorn the
desks of most serious legal technologists".
Since its launch in 1995, the Insider has
become essential reading for the legal IT
industry, both within the UK and internationally,
while its editor - award winning journalist
and legal IT commentator Charles Christian
- has established the Insider's reputation
as the leader in legal technology news.
Each issue of the Insider is read by an average
of over 7000 legal IT professionals - the
people who develop, sell, buy, implement,
support or manage legal IT within software
vendors, law firms and inhouse legal departments
- and latest readership research indicates
that the Insider - described by one of the
UK's leading legal IT consultants as "essential
reading in the industry" - is the only
legal IT publication read cover-to-cover the
moment it lands on their desktops.
In the words of one
UK marketing agency "It looks excellent
and is an interesting read that is not PR
smarm. Then again it is produced by a real
editor and real writer which is a bit of a
rarity these days." The Insider was also
named by top consultant Neil Cameron as "one
of the top 10 movers and shakers in the legal
IT world today" - the Insider was the
only publication to make it into the top 10
and this is what he had to say "There
is no doubt that the Legal Technology Insider
was a brainwave and has been a tremendous
influence throughout the legal IT world for
many years. Everyone has to send Charles Christian
their press releases and then wait with baited
breath to see what he does with them."
PR agencies please read this:
We are interested in all news stories, product
launches, orders, staff appointments, corporate
news and application stories/case studies
that are of genuine relevance to our readers
but, unlike some other publications, we do
not carry any advertorial or sponsored features.
We are happy to receive press releases via
email as, plain text, attached Word files
or PDFs but we do not use photos nor illustrations.
Also, because we are solely news rather than
advertising features driven we do not publish
a conventional 'August special focus on legal
accounts systems' type features list. Instead,
if something is topical, we report it. One
final point to note, as it does cause confusion
from time to time, is we only look at legal
IT from the point of view of the technology
lawyers use, as distinct from the legal issues
surrounding the use of technology generally.
