West author/blogger making her name known

Attorney Nicole Black has a lot on her plate these days.

A lot. On the Web, and off.

For starters, she’s a practicing attorney for Fiandach & Fiandach in Rochester, New York. But, add to that her work on the book, Criminal Law in New York, published by West, a regular legal newspaper writing assignment called The Daily Record in Rochester and a side business that she’s just getting started to help teach lawyers about legal technology and how to use it in their practices.

Then, there’s her extremely active presence on Twitter (as @nikiblack).

And, oh yeah, she writes four blogs: Sui Generis, Practicing Law in the 21st Century, Legal Antics and Legal Tweets, which of course plays off her interest in Twitter.

So at LegalTech New York, we asked her about Twitter. Black admits it’s not for every law firm. But it can serve a purpose:

Black also told us her high-profile in legal circles on Twitter and the Web has led to people finding her when looking for legal help online.

As for blogging, Black says she initially started blogging to build up a body of writing work after taking a couple of years off from practicing law. That led to her involvement in the book she co-authors for West and her writing in The Daily Record.
