Buffalo Law Journal to merge with Buffalo Biz First

The Buffalo Law Journal, a newspaper that has published for more than 90 years, will merge with Buffalo Business First next month.

A Business First article states, “Combining the publications will create better efficiencies, said John Tebeau, publisher of the Law Journal and Business First. The last stand-alone edition of the Law Journal will be Feb. 10. Both are owned by American City Business Journals, a North Carolina media company.

“Law Journal content will migrate to Business First and three of the Law Journal’s four staffers will be absorbed by the business journal.

“‘We want to assure our loyal Law Journal readers that we will continue to provide coverage of the people and issues important to the legal community,’ Tebeau said.”
