Our firm was recently awarded Outstanding Achievement in Website Development by the Interactive Media Awards (IMA) for its work on the Beasley Allen Company Website (www.BeasleyAllen.com). The honor recognizes that the website met and surpassed the standards of excellence that comprise the web’s most professional work. The site was singled out specifically for excellence in both the Legal and Professional Services categories.

The judging consisted of various criteria, including design, usability, innovative technical features, standards compliance and content. In order to win this award, the site had to meet strict guidelines in each of these areas — an achievement only a fraction of sites in the IMA competition earn each quarter. Scott Thomas, Director of Internet Services at the firm correctly says that, “It’s an honor to have our work recognized by the Interactive Media Awards. We feel strongly that our websites are world-class examples of how the Internet can be used to enhance a company’s message. This accolade is further proof of this fact.”

The firm’s first website was registered in April 2001 and launched shortly after as a 20 page online business card. Today, our folks manage 13 websites comprising over 15,000 pages of legal information on a broad range of topics ranging from auto accidents to consumer fraud to pharmaceutical litigation. During an average week, our websites receive 150,000 combined hits and are viewed by over 18,000 visitors.

Several years ago, Tom Methvin, who is the managing shareholder at the firm, realized the potential of the Internet. His foresight has allowed us to position ourselves at an early date as a leader in the Internet legal space. With the continual support of the lawyers and dedicated staff who work so hard on the websites, we will continue remain at the forefront of legal technology.
