Biglaw Construction question

Post by Stevie Janowski » Mon May 28, 2018 11:05 am

I'm an associate at a large law firm in Philadelphia practicing Construction law. I find blogging/writing articles as a decent marketing tool and my firm seems to encourage it. Due to it being somewhat of a small(er) practice, I am finding it hard to stay abreast of current issues in construction law and was wondering if anyone knew of any good construction law blogs/articles to help me do so. It would be even better if it were Third Circuit specific. I appreciate any feedback.

I’ve found that the best way to stay up to speed on a particular area of law is through alerts on the various research databases. For example, you can set up an alert in all third circuit or PA courts through WL, lexis, or bloomberg to automatically forward any opinion that hits on certain keywords. If your firm has a library they can show you how to do it and also set up an alert on the various news services so you can receive more general news about that area of law.
