Am Law Global 100

Above The Law’s managing editor David Lat analyzes the latest Global 100 roster from ALM’s The American Lawyer, released yesterday.  Lat concludes that the overall picture is peachy, even though there are some notable malcontents who think otherwise. “Am Law numbers are still, for better or worse, the biggest game in town,” says Lat. Top dog: Latham & Watkins: $2,612,000,000.

Privacy & Security

Just launched: “Bloomberg Law: Privacy & Data Security.” It offers current news, research, advice and tools to help organizations plan and execute  strategies. Active topics include data protection, consumer privacy, e-data management,  cybercrime and more. IMHO: Priv-DataSec is going to be a key area for new legal technology, with lots of opportunities for the CodeX crowd.
