Many law firms have taken to the Internet as a means to promote their work. Blogs are one of the most common ways for a law firm to talk about the services they provide and the issues they face in their particular field. Posts on these blogs tend to contain more specialized knowledge on the legal issue being discussed. The firms walk a delicate line between providing information (which is good) and providing legal advice (which is bad). Take a look at one of the following blogs and find a post that addresses a business law related issue. You may only reference one of the following blogs:

Porter Wright: http://www.porterwright.com/blogs/

Coolidge Wall: http://www.coollaw.com/blog/

Burton Law: http://www.burton-law.com/this-is-burton/blog/

Find one blog post on a business law related subject and answer the following questions. Your answer requires a minimum of one full page.

1) Summarize the issue discussed in the blog post you’ve chosen.

2) What ethical considerations are raised by the issue?

3) Should a business make any changes to how it operates in order to protect itself from the issues raised in the post?

4) How would the issue discussed in the post affect a sole proprietorship? A partnership? A corporation?

5) Why do you think a law firm may keep a blog on business related issues?

ADDITIONAL INSTRUCTIONS: The article you choose must have been published this year. You are to submit your answers as well as a link to the article you’re analyzing. You will receive up to 5 extra credit points depending on the thoroughness of your responses and appropriateness of your article. Your response requires a minimum of one full page.
