Hartford’s Shipman & Goodwin has launched EmploymentLawLetter.com, a free online resource for employers to stay current on developing issues in labor and employment law.  For the last 40 years, the firm has published the popular hard-copy version of the Employment Law Letter, and wanted to continue this legacy by expanding to an online format.

“In this day and age, many firms have gone to online publications such as blogs or mini-sites,” said Gabriel J. Jiran, chairman of Shipman’s employer defense and labor relations practice group. “In fact, we are very proud of the award-winning blog ctemploymentlawblog.com, authored by our partner Dan Schwartz. However, as we looked at how people get information on any number of nonlegal subjects, we decided that we needed to add a format where our readers get updates in the same way they may get them from a news outlet.”
