"As a premier appellate practice in the state, we have long recognized the importance of intimate familiarity with the Michigan Supreme Court and Court of Appeals," said John Bursch, a partner at Warner Norcross and chair of the Appellate Practice Group. "Our goal is to ensure that no law firm knows the Michigan appellate landscape better.
"Our new 'One Court of Justice' blog is a real-time tool that will allow our clients, the media and others interested in the law to track important legal developments in Michigan and use that information to guide their decisions – or their coverage of events. It builds on the other technology we use to bring value and efficiency to our clients, including West km® knowledge management software and our proprietary WNJ Casetracker, which provides clients with an Internet portal to monitor every appellate matter we undertake."
The One Court of Justice blog is patterned after the popular SCOTUSBlog, which provides ongoing coverage of the U.S. Supreme Court. The One Court of Justice Blog is the first and only blog to provide such timely and comprehensive coverage and analysis of Michigan appellate courts and decisions.
