Recently I asked a few Business Court law clerks the following question: What are some practice pointers that you would give to attorneys appearing before the Court? Although I clerked at the Business Court and should presumably have some insight into my own question, it’s been a while since I clerked so I thought it would be beneficial to get a fresh perspective. Below is my summary of five tips I received. Disclaimer: These are the views of certain anonymous individuals and should not be attributed to the Business Court.

Protection of key manufacturing and critical infrastructure systems must be provided the same priority as other sectors of our economy if we are to protect basic operations and competitive superiority to which we have become accustomed.[1] Basic industrial and manufacturing operations that have long relied on commercial off-the-shelf products are sitting targets to the same maladies that enterprise networks face.

Remember the good old days when healthcare benefits were provided at a premium level for a small additional cost to the employer? Many of us have not been around long enough to enjoy that recollection!

Healthcare costs are also an important consideration for recruiting and hiring. New employees are scrutinizing a firm’s offered healthcare benefits during their job decision-making process. Let’s face it, most mid-size law firms pay attorneys and staff within a similar range.
