STL Turns Five!

Who knew I was so trendy?

The NYT today reported on what appears to be a new trend: “lawyers in their mid-20s to early 40s leaving large firms to start their own small ones.”

Sweet!

This isn’t an observation about trademark law, but I have to say, the small law firm platform is a boon. You can lower your rates, bill less, work with startups and small businesses, and really partner with the clients you choose to take on. My new small firm has only been in business for three months. But so far, being small has delivered everything I had hoped.

Now, on to more pressing news: STL is five!!

That’s right. Five years ago this weekend, STL published its first post (here). If I did my math right, this is STL’s 896th entry. 

Thanks for reading all those posts!
