Your blogging guide and partner:

Internet legal trailblazer Kevin O'Keefe.

As you get set to blog, your primary marketing partner will be LexBlog president and founder Kevin O'Keefe. Kevin was a trial lawyer for 17 years, and he successfully marketed that business online. He did it in such a positive way that USA Today said if he isn't careful, he may wind up giving lawyers a good name.

Kevin built the leading online law community for consumers and small businesspeople; the resulting mammoth amounts of information are now incorporated into the leading lawyer directory online at lawyers.com! He also served as a Vice President of LexisNexis' Martindale-Hubbell, heading the formation of content and the community for small and medium law.

During his tenure as an attorney, he was a sustaining member of the Association of Trial Lawyers of America and a board member of his state's trial lawyers association. Naturally, Kevin has his own blog, entitled Real Lawyers :: Have Blogs.

Kevin's story

He knows all about high overhead and the constant pressure to gain new clients and retain existing ones. Kevin's done what all lawyers do at some point, which is to spend a fortune on radio, TV and yellow pages advertising that just doesn't cut it. And he's seen countless lawyers waste money on Web sites that mostly just sit there and don't do anything for them.

That's why he perfected the Blog concept for lawyers -- to give them the power and reach of the Internet without the time-gobbling complexities of constantly coding, revising and manually compiling new data. And LexBlog gives you ongoing education, support and service to always give you the competitive edge.
