CEELM News Coverage Approach Update: Supporting Those Who Support Us

We’re growing – and so is the number of articles we publish each week. From 55 articles on average per week three years ago to over 100 today, we’ve expanded our coverage significantly to better serve our community.

We are proud of our standing open call to diligently cover all news that land on our desks with no commercial barriers, but that growth in terms of free visibility for all firms in the region has:

  • Increased the resources we invest in covering all news and, ironically
  • Created a lot of publishing “noise” around the news items that involve those who help us keep the lights on – our subscribers.

To keep up with this growth and ensure we continue to cater to the market to the best of our abilities, we’re making an important change: starting July 1, 2025, we’ll only (1) feature news on our homepage Spotlight section, (2) run stories with personalized hero images, and (3) reshare articles on social media related to firms that are our account holders: Starter Packs, Corporate Subscribers, Thought Leardership Section or Practice Leadership accounts, Knowledge Partners, etc.

Why this change?

  • Account holders make it possible for us to offer coverage for all. The support of our account holders helps us keep the lights on, allowing us to offer free visibility to law firms across the region on our platform.
  • Less noise, more focus. By resharing selectively, we’re aiming to help our account holders cut through the noise and put more spotlight on their stories. Running fewer social media posts means we’ll also be able to dedicate time to tailor individual posts to increase their exposure.

We continue to be dedicated to covering legal news in the CEE region – and doing so in an editorially independent manner. We’ll also continue to index all the concluded client work we capture by firm and partner to have them captured in our Table of Deals and Activity Rankings (stay tuned for the H1 tables for 2025 soon!). So please keep submitting your firm’s news – appointments, concluded client matters, awards, etc. We will continue publishing them at no cost. 

The table below outlines the various elements that will be present in new items depending on the pack of the firm(s) present in the news item. Naturally, each pack includes a plethora of other benefits beyond news articles processing – if you’d like to learn more about either, do not hesitate to get in touch!

Thank you for supporting our mission. Here’s to growing together!
