The Top 5 Twitter Influencers on Banking Law

We have discussed the topic of influencer marketing for law firms previously on our blog. To review, influencers are thought leaders in a field or practice area with a reputation for being knowledgeable and well-respected. Influencer marketing can ultimately help expand your law firm’s reach when these individuals share your firm’s content on their own social media pages, or enhance your content by blogging and speaking on your podcasts and webinars. Over the next several months we will be highlighting influencers on social media from AmLaw 200 firms. In this post, we introduce five lawyers who are notable Twitter influencers in Banking Law.
