2007 Clawbies
The Canadian Law Blog Awards ("Clawbies") promote Canadian legal talent on the internet. You may access the website at http://www.clawbies.ca. Recently, Clawbies issued "awards" for, among other things, the "Best Practitioner Support Blog."
The Clawbies website was created by Steve Matthews, founder and principal of Stem Legal, a company that has helped to bring web visibility to the legal community. Given the ubiquitous impact of the internet in disseminating information that was once only available in print form to the general public, it is no surprise that blogs and podcasts have achieved such great popularity. Of course, these technological advancements now afford the legal community the opportunity to discuss current legal issues on the World Wide Web.
With regard to the outcome of the awards, Garry Wise was awarded the "Best Practitioner Support Blog." According to Clawbies, Mr. Wise blogs on a wide variety of topics and, in particular, has provided useful advice to many sole practitioners. The runners up for this award were David Fraser's Canadian Privacy Law Blog and our blog, Hull & Hull LLP's Toronto Estate Law Blog.
Congratulations to Mr. Wise and Mr. Fraser on these "awards"! We are also proud of our recognition, and more importantly, that our blog and podcast series make a valuable contribution to the Canadian legal community.
Thanks and have a great day,
Allan Socken
