Reuters is seeking an experienced journalist to cover lawyers, law firms, general counsel and the economic forces that are reshaping the legal industry.
In addition to writing enterprise pieces, this reporter will be expected to break news on everything from law firm mergers and dissolutions to practice area expansions to rainmaker defections. This is a chance to cover the power players that drive the deals and set the agendas for both the legal industry and businesses in general.
The position, which is part of a team that includes experienced legal journalists, will offer an ambitious reporter the opportunity to deepen expertise in a subject area of great importance to our readers.
It will primarily involve writing for Practitioner Insights, a news platform for customers of Thomson Reuters’ flagship legal platform WestlawNext, but the reporter will also be encouraged to write distinctive stories for Reuters’ financial, media and consumer platforms.
The ideal candidate must be well sourced with law firm and general counsel contacts. Applicants must be fast writers, eager to break news, and able to think analytically.
