I’m glad Lexis owned up to their mistake. That definitely improves their image …

Finally Back, Check Out Interview

I just realized that I haven’t posted anything new at Legal Andrew in about five weeks. Wow! I know I have been busy, but I’m sorry for neglecting you guys for so long.

Cool group interview
