As a law student and active internet marketer, it's very interesting to see which firms are at the forefront of online marketing. Brings a new consideration into where you'd like to work.
BTW, nice blog and very cool niche :).

Legal marketing has come a long way. It is ok to be creative, inovative, and to really provide pro bono beyond just the press side. It shows! I hope I make it in to a legal firm to provide my own creative and public relations areas...The field has progressed from the partners and staff wearing multiple hats as marketers/public relation specialists.
