We joke that we're a 'small but mighty' team at Indiana Lawyer, but it's really true: While there are only four of us, I am consistently blown away by both the quantity and quality of news the IL team is able to bring to the Indiana legal community — news that lawyers often can't get anywhere else. I'm honored to lead this team of talented, hard-working, tenacious journalists."
