The Big Apple

My trip to New York City last week was eventful, to say the least.  After speaking at the ABA's Labor & Employment Law section's Technology in the Practice & Workplace Committee's midwinter meeting, I met a number of fellow New York lawyers, many of whom were also blawgers, for a very enjoyable lunch at Otto.

In attendance were:

• The lively and entertaining Monica Bay, who publishes the Common Scold blog
• Scott Greenfield, the author of the very interesting and thought provoking blog Simple Justice
• Imke Ratschko, founder of the highly informative New York Small Business Law Blog
• The engaging author of the New York Personal Injury Law Blog, Eric Turkewitz
• Andrew Lavoot Bluestone, who publishes the illuminating New York Attorney Malpractice Blog
• And, last, but certainly not least, the fascinating and engaging Sairo Rao, author of the soon to be released tell-all novel, Chambermaid, which focuses on a young attorney's year first year as a federal law clerk.

A fun time was had by all and it was so nice to finally meet this lively bunch of lawyers in person!  Although I had intended to take pictures, I was remiss in my duties.  But, Monica has posted a picture from the lunch here at her blog and promises to post more soon.  I'll add links to more pictures as they are available.
