3September 2017 | THE BEST OF NJLJ

Welcome to the results of our sixth annual New Jersey Law Journal readers’ poll, wherein our readers have cast their votes for the best providers of services and goods to the legal profession.

This product was developed out of a desire to help New Jersey lawyers—our readers—identify the finest legal products and service providers and to package their choices all in one reference. We crafted a ballot with several dozen categories for you to cast your Best Of votes on a number of areas critical to practicing law and managing your personal and professional life. From data technology products and banking services to real estate brokers and power lunch locations, New Jersey Law Journal’s Best Of showcases the businesses that stand out among their competitors in providing you with the essentials you require to compete in today’s legal market.

This year’s Best Of offerings are just a starting place. If you see a category we missed or a vendor we should include next year, please send us your thoughts about how we can improve. We adjust our product each year to meet the needs of our readers based on your feedback.

Again, thanks for sharing your voice and your votes. Because of your tremendous support, the New Jersey Law Journal’s Best Of has become a permanent, must-have resource for New Jersey’s legal professionals.
