A Message From the Editor

Law firm leaders want lawyers to get back in the office, but they're less interested in growing their office space. Our first story has more. Also, the state Supreme Court has agreed to take up a long-percolating challenge to the statutory damages cap, and the Elmiron mass litigation is wrapping up on the eve of what was expected to be its first bellwether trial.

Thanks for reading!

– Max Mitchell, Regional Managing Editor, The Legal Intelligencer and New Jersey Law Journal
