I would be remiss if I did not forward to you my compliments on your premiere issue of Precedent. You are to be complimented for undertaking such a bold adventure. I wish you much success in your new endeavour and look forward to receipt of the next issue.
A new twist, a new turn and a breath of fresh air — thank you for the change from what we have all been used to for so many years.

Everything from the cover to the feature stories and profiles (and even the fashion!) tells me that Precedent has a new, fresh take on lawyers and the legal profession. With so many challenges facing our profession — including the retention of women, access to legal services, maintenance and evolution of admission standards, and diversity (to name just a few) — I see Precedent as an opportunity to bring new voices to the discussion.

Your first issue was a big hit in our legal department — my copy went missing within hours of its arrival and I have had numerous people ask me where they can get their own. Your popularity around here should really come as no surprise — we are a young legal department and Precedent is really the only magazine that speaks to the interests and issues relevant to our age group. Not only is it relevant, it’s also fun and stylish (two things we often lose sight of in our stressful, busy, and traditional careers). Finally, something to look forward to in the mail!

I have been a regular reader of lawandstyle.ca for well over a year now. I wanted to let you know how much I appreciate both your website and magazine. Between my law practice and raising a family it’s hard to keep up. Precedent gives me a chance to read about what’s new and important in the world of law — and the equally important world of what lawyers do outside of law.

Great job on the fall issue of Precedent. I found the issue to be full of fun and educational information. You certainly have a very nice mix of hip and credible.
