A Message From the Editor

Our first item today asks how can law firms be responsible for the mental health of their attorneys when they are "nothing but a collection of lawyers who have all of the same flaws and fears as the firm’s individual associates, counsels and partners?" And we bring you inside a hearing where Ballard Spahr's white collar defense leader pushed back on allegations that the firm had a conflict of interest in the Johnny Doc prosecution.

Thanks for reading!

– Max Mitchell, Regional Managing Editor, The Legal Intelligencer and New Jersey Law Journal
