Colorado Lawyer Launches New Website

Colorado Lawyer recently launched the first phase of its new website, cl.cobar.org. The optimized site replaces the digital flip book to enhance readability via computers, smart phones, and tablets. It also allows us to deliver content in a timelier fashion.

You can find articles for a given issue in the Issues Archive; browse articles by legal topic; search the entire site via keyword, topic, or author; and download PDFs of individual articles or complete issues. The "From the Courts" section houses disciplinary case summaries, appellate summaries (including selected Tenth Circuit summaries), and other court information, all of which will be posted on the site as soon as it's available. More content, such as web-only content and news and notes, will be added as the site progresses.

What's missing? What's not working quite right? Let us know by emailing Susie Klein, managing editor, at sklein@cobar.org. The website has been designed for versatility, and we will continue to make adjustments to meet member needs.
