The 2020 National Law Review “Go-To Thought Leader” Awards Announced, Honoring Excellence in Legal Thought Leadership

The National Law Review’s 2020 “Go-To Thought Leadership Awards” recognize 72 respected legal authors selected from a pool of over 20,000 legal news articles published in 2020.

CHICAGO (PRWEB) December 21, 2020

The National Law Review’s “Go-To Thought Leadership Awards” recognizes 72 exceptional legal authors in practice areas ranging from Aviation Law to the SBA’s Paycheck Protection Program Implementation. Award recipients are selected from a pool of over 20,000 legal news articles published by the National Law Review (NLR) in 2020. Those honored wrote relevant, consistent and well-thought-out legal news, and the award committee also considered pieces quoted or cited by other publications and media. With the high volume of content the National Law Review publishes, the selected authors and organizations are truly “Go-To Thought Leaders” in their areas of expertise.

Jennifer Schaller, Managing Director of the National Law Review, “With the COVID-19 pandemic challenges of 2020, attorneys were unable to interact with their clients and potential clients in traditional, face to face ways, and this pushed the demand for the legal analysis provided by our authors to unprecedented levels, producing results like over 4.3 million page visits from readers in both March and April of 2020.”    

Per Eilene Spear, the National Law Review Operations Manager “Reliable and timely legal news was incredibly important this year, as new government programs provided a lifeline to struggling businesses and individuals who with the right guidance were able to take advantage of these emergency programs. NLR’s subject matter experts provided analysis that gave a road-map, and practical advice to our readers and our audience responded with unprecedented readership numbers. A win-win, as lawyers cannot network or get their message out there in the traditional ways and readers are seeking updates on all the legal changes due to the turbulence in the economy.”

This is the third year the NLR formally recognized the unique talents of its contributors. Less than 1% of the authors who publish with the National Law Review receive the “Go-To Thought Leadership Award.” This year’s winners include more than 70 authors and firms in more than 35 legal practice areas.

Please join us in congratulating the National Law Review’s 2020 “Go-To Thought Leader” recipients:
