A couple of weeks ago, I mentioned that I was putting together a parody law firm site for Anonymous Lawyer's firm. The site's almost done, and I wanted to give anyone reading this a chance to help me out and be a beta tester, to let me know if everything shows up okay on their browser, and to let me know what you think of the content.
The site's at AnonymousLawFirm.com. Check it out, and let me know what you think, either in the comments or by sending me an e-mail. I'm still tweaking some of the content, and I haven't scrubbed it for typos or anything like that, so there's probably at least a few. The plan is to update it with some new news stories every couple of days, maybe some additional attorney profiles, and potentially some Anonymous Lawyer podcasts of some sort. But click around, let me know if you happen to find any broken links or anything that doesn't look right on your system, or other thoughts...
Really funny!

the color scheme really doesnt look like the typical law firm. They are all dark colors. Light blue is too positive.

looks fine on safari for macintosh.
don't want to be picky about this but just so you can fix it, Chan is never a korean last name - it's always chinese - although the picture definitely looks like a korean girl.

I laughed out loud when I clicked on "diversity."

1. The hobbies for Jason Rogers and Graham Peng are too similar.
2. Is Sam Pettibone supposed to look like a woman but have a "his" in the description?
3. In Jason Rogers' profile it references another black associate. I couldn't find another black associate (although admittedly I only looked through the male names for this, so perhaps it's a black female associate? or perhaps I just missed it...).

The "excluding Jews" comment was slightly offensive

In response to 5:28:
But the "may be related to the other Asian in the firm" comment wasn't?

The quote on the "Missions" page is by Laura P. There is no attorney listed by this name.

You have Jasper Firth (thanks for the ode to Colin) telling law students, "Law review can be a great experience in law school. Teaches you a good work ethic. Very little to lose. Go for it."
But, does Guilford have a law review? I thought L.R. was somewhat of an American school thing since in Europe, a law degree is an undergrad activity and the LLM is only a year.
