JD Supra Introduced Law Centers

For those who don't know of JDSupra, take a moment to read one of our previous posts, JD Supra & Facebook. JDSupra recently introduced its Law Centers. All the donated documents are now organized into four categories by topics and areas of interest: Business Law Centers, Personal Law Centers, Government Law Centers, and Law Practice Centers.

Each section features news first, which is followed by three main sections: News and Analysis, All Documents, and Contributors. One can easily see what is new in the area of research, what new documents have been shared and posted, and who contributed them.

If you are a twitterer, the Business Law and Personal Law Centers have their own Twitter Feed that you can follow.

JDSupra & Facebook

Why waste precious time (that we all seem not to have enough of) to re-invent the wheel? JDSupra is a legal document sharing site where one can search or browse for the materials needed. Thousands of legal documents (court filings, decisions, forms, articles, alerts, newsletters, ...) are submitted and shared by the professionals who created them (lawyers, law firms, public interest groups, academics, members of the legal community, ...). The keyword search can be refined by jurisdiction (court, circuit, region), by type of filing and/or by subject matter.

JDSupra has also launched an application for Facebook. JD Supra Docs application connects the JD Supra and Facebook accounts and automatically streams the documents and professional information that is posted on JD Supra into a Facebook profile.

Any Facebook friend able to view your profile will be able to see your documents. Additionally, each time a newly posted document streams from JD Supra to Facebook, it appears in your activity “news feed.” JDSupra enables lawyers, law firms, and legal professionals to publish documents online. In order to use this application, you must first be publishing documents on JD Supra. You can join now and sign up here.
