SAUSALITO, Calif., Feb. 27 /PRNewswire/ -- FreeAdvice.com
(http://www.freeadvice.com), the leading consumer-oriented legal
advice and information website, today announced the launch of a group

What do lawyers say behind closed doors? What do they really think
about legal aspects of current events and consumer issues? By
contributing to Legal Soapbox, attorneys, legal scholars and expert
witnesses now share their professional opinions and advice on a wide
range of topics such as the Blackberry litigation, the death penalty
or how to get insurance claims paid. The group blog provides a
platform for legal experts and law bloggers to comment on breaking
legal news, court decisions, proposed legislation, newsworthy trials
and their significance to the public. Legal Soapbox also features the
latest legal news stories from the Associated Press, as well as
notable new court decisions and links to other popular law blogs.

The Legal Soapbox blogging platform was customized to deliver an
easy-to-use, superior blogging experience even for first-time
bloggers, and experienced law bloggers can use it to promote their
existing blogs. Legal Soapbox also features a unique advantage in the
blogosphere, verifying the credentials of its authors through its
affiliate ExpertPages.com.

Ha'Aretz, Israel's leading newspaper, and is recognized as a "founding
