Law firm directories as lame and musts-to-avoid.
Read Larry Bodine's "Only 3% of Legal Work is Influenced by Directories". And see our August post "Martindale-Hubbell: Should we all 'just say no'?". Note: after "just say no" was written, Hull McGuire promptly re-upped with M-H anyway. Our hypocrisies have no bounds.

A new era of credit market Mega-Litigation?
According to Lord Falconer, the UK's former Lord Chancellor (the current one is Jack Straw), a kind of "mega-litigation" born of the global credit crisis is coming to a forum near you. Last month in London, following the Lehman Brothers bankruptcy filing, Falconer said before the Legal Week Litigation Forum: “There is going to be litigation on a scale that we have not seen before.” Resist the urge to salivate but do see Justin Patten's Human Mediation.
