I just got an email about the 11th Annual Webby Awards, which has a category for Law. From the Webby Category:
Law
Web sites for law firms, legal service providers, pro-bono legal services, litigation support, and self-help legal information. Sites that feature content on legal issues, trials, law and business issues, court decisions or legal advocacy.
From the email I received:
The awards, hailed by the New York Times as “the online equivalent of an Oscar”, officially launched their Call For Entries last week. Justice Learning took home the top prize at the 10th Annual Webby Awards, while sites from Court TV, Jurist, and FindLaw were among the nominees.
If your firm has a site that you think is Webby-worthy, I would definitely encourage you to enter. While designing your firm’s site with an award in mind is an absolutely awful idea (you’re trying to get clients and make money….not have a pretty site), the converse is also true: If you’ve got a great site that is really working well for you, maybe you deserve an award!
And as any law firm knows, a little bit of nationwide good publicity never hurts.
