Canadian Lawyer discontinues spinoff magazine for young lawyers

CLB Media is discontinuing the publication of Associates, a spinoff from flagship title Canadian Lawyer. The law and lifestyle title was designed for young lawyers and started publishing in February 2008. A preview issue had been rushed out in November 2007 as as a competitive response to the launch of Precedent: the new rules of law and style, an independent quarterly magazine aimed at...young lawyers.

A letter to current and recent advertisers says the spring 2009 issue will be Associates' last, citing a lack of sufficient advertising support. The most recent issue on its website is the dated Fall 2008.

Meanwhile, Precedent, which is edited and published by lawyer Melissa Kluger, continues to publish.

What delicious news. I love it when the big guys can't knock off the smarter, smaller ones.

Well, these particular "big guys" have a hard time knocking off any competition!
