"Cravath Is Spreading Some Holiday Cheer!: Nothing brightens the spirit like some green!"
"And They Aren't The Only Ones!: McKool Smith, Paul Hastings and Cadwalader line their associates' pockets with cash!"
"A Disbarment Long Fought For: The profession wishes you adieu, Josh Kindred!"
"Praying For Hallucinations: Is AI or human error to blame for this misreading of Jones?"

These items reflect shifts in firm compensation, professional accountability, technology reliability, and regulatory policy.
