Some of the country's law firms, particularly the larger ones, have
very comprehensive web sites that not only furnish a forum for introducing
the firm, but also have detailed law libraries or links to helpful (and
usually carefully screened) sites. The National Law Journal publishes
a list of the largest 250 firms, and provides links to their web sites.
