Today marks, from a structural standpoint, the most significant moment in my nearly 17 years at The Legal Intelligencer : the merger of our two biggest Pennsylvania brands, The Legal and Pennsylvania Law Weekly .

The merger is the result of Pennsylvania’s changing legal landscape and a response to demand from readers. It’s one that’s been months in the making, a move I was intimately involved with and enthusiastically support, and which was also supported and planned by our publisher, Hal Cohen.
