Seyfarth Shaw’s California Peculiarities Employment Law Blog has been chosen as one of the ABA Journal’s 2014 “Blawg 100.” Editors of the ABA Journal recently announced that they have selected the blog as one of the top 100 best blogs for a legal audience in the Labor & Employment category. Now that the editors have made their picks, the ABA Journal is asking readers to weigh in and vote on their favorites in each of the 8th Annual Blawg 100’s 13 categories. Readers can visit http://www.abajournal.com/blawg100 to register and vote. Voting ends at close of business on Dec. 19, 2014.

The “Blawg 100” is a favorites list compiled by ABA Journal staff. The publication asks for readers’ nominations through the Blawg Amici process. Most nominees are blawgs that are regularly updated, contain original content, opinion and analysis. Many are also on the ABA Journal’s radar because the publication’s staff finds the posts useful in tipping them off to news or generating posts they consider worthy of coverage.

“No longer to be confused as a fad or the realm of the tech-savvy, law blogs are rooted in the legal media landscape,” ABA Journal Editor and Publisher Allen Pusey said. “While traditional media sources often break news, law blogs dive deeper to offer insight into what the news means for clients, the legal profession and the public. They are sometimes-irreverent watchdogs of the bench and bar. And the ones on our list are well-written and, more often than not, entertaining.”

Published by Seyfarth Shaw LLP, the California Peculiarities Employment Law Blog is for in-house attorneys, HR professionals, business owners, and managers who face real issues on a daily basis and need practical solutions to address them. The blog aims to provide timely, topical information on the challenges that California employers face. Unlike blogs that simply provide legal updates, the blog has a running series of Workplace Solutions that addresses evolving areas of interest, including California leaves of absence, recruiting and hiring, trade secrets, and the use of social media.
