Founded in Dec. 2006, Legal Newsline (LNL) is an Internet-based newswire dedicated to 24/7 coverage of state supreme courts and state attorneys general.
Our focus: cases and actions that portend to have an impact on business-- whether directly or eventually, once they've meandered their way through our justice system.
Herein marks the impetus for Legal Newsline.
Today, oft-overlooked state courts and attorneys general have a far-reaching impact on the ever-changing legal landscape for corporate executives. The influx of need-to-know news has become overwhelming, and prevailing media outlets have proven ill-equipped to keep up.
Legal Newsline will fill this void, tracking daily the newest AG actions and the latest court decisions of import to business.
We're Chicago-based with staff writers and freelance correspondents stationed in and near all the major jurisdictions in the United States.
