The
Law Journal is published Monday through Friday, with a circulation of 11,450, which it says makes it the highest circulation legal daily newspaper in the United States. The paper's website has 3,500 paid subscribers.
Its primary audience is litigators. Because the full decisions of many
New York City court cases, particularly the
New York City Civil Court, are reported only in the
Law Journal, it is common for lawyers practicing in these courts to cite to the newspaper for
case law authority. The
Law Journal is also one of the accepted newspapers regularly used to
serve process by publication of legal
notices.
