Our blog posts are automatically patched into our Facebook page and our Miller & Zois Twitter page, so you’ll see updates as soon as they come in.

Of course, we like to return the favor and keep track of the goings-on in the drug and medical device litigation world. If you have a Facebook page, a blog or a Twitter account that we aren’t following, please let me know at johncord@millerandzois.com, or feel free to include it in the comments below for all the world to see.

End Of An Era

Mark Herrmann, half of the team that cranks out lengthy and well-thought out blogs for the Drug and Device Law blog, is now retiring from that particular job. Read his farewell post here.

No word on whether his partner, Jim Beck, will continue it alone, or will find another co-conspirator. We hope he will continue for selfish reasons--the blog is an invaluable resource and, despite it being wrong most of the time (playfully stated--the Drug Recall Lawyer Blog is on the other side of the aisle, after all), it was always entertaining and enlightening.

At any rate--good luck Mark. We wish you the best.

Legal Blogs: What We Follow

The Drug Recall Lawyer Blog is a relatively young blog—we first posted on April 28, 2009, and in the past seven months we have put up 130 posts (including this one). Per Google Analytics, the average number of hits to the our blog during the workweek is 135 (which includes weekends, the average is higher if only weekdays are considered); our highest single day score was just last month with 386 hits; and the average reader spends about 1 minute and 2 seconds on our site.

So, we read with interest the announcement of the Third Annual ABA Journal Blawg 100. The ABA Journal selects its favorites, and posts them for all to see. This year, they included the related Twitter sites, where applicable.

In the spirit of the ABA’s article, here’s a list of our top blogs:

NEPOTISM:
Of course, we follow blogs by our co-workers and bosses at Miller & Zois.

Additionally, we follow the Maryland Daily Record’s legal blog, Generation JD (which we contribute to). Generation JD features the musings, trials (literally) and tribulations of seven Maryland/Washington D.C. lawyers from disparate firms and backgrounds.

TECHNOLOGY:

DRUGS & MEDICAL DEVICES:

TRIAL PRACTICE:

OTHER:

NON-LEGAL: (because sometimes you just need to have non-law hobbies):

We have yet to really go through the ABA list, but we’ll check it out and let you know which ones we recommend.

Maryland Legal Blogs on Twitter!

The Drug Recall Lawyer Blog, along with six other high-quality legal blogs, have teamed up to form one Twitter page. The connection between the blogs is that they are all written by members of my firm. Some are national in scope, and some deal with Maryland, specifically. Here's a list of the blogs that automatically link to Twitter through Twitterfeed (this is a great way to stay updated, assuming you do not use Google Reader or some other RSS feed software):


Follow us at @MillerAndZois! And, stay tuned for our FaceBook Fan Page.
