The publication date of the premiere issue of the CEE Legal Matters magazine is now less than two weeks away! While we make final arrangements and add finishing touches on the many articles, interviews, and other features for the magazine, we hope you’ll take the time to subscribe, either on your own behalf or on behalf of your company.

If you want to receive our magazine, remember that our early bird discount for subscriptions will run out after the launch of the first issue. Fill out this form if you do not want to miss out. 

And remember, the features from the magazine will be available online as well — but only for individual or corporate subscribers, not for those who sign up for the free online news.

We look forward to the launch and we hope you will enjoy the read!

Twenty days until the CEE Legal Matters magazine hits the market.Twenty days for us to finish the interviews, write the final paragraphs on the stories, complete the articles and editorials, and prepare the features that will, together, form the first issue. Our writers, editors, and contributors are warming to the task, the long days of writing getting longer, the batteries on our laptops recharged more often, caffeine becoming more critical. Twenty days. We know it. And we’ll meet it. We’re committed to introducing our first issue in style, and to producing an issue that will be useful, interesting, engaging, and relevant. We have twenty days to make that happen.

We hope you’re looking forward to it too. And remember, the approaching deadline doesn’t only matter to us. It matters to you as well. The discounted early-bird subscription and advertising offers available on the CEE Legal Matters website will expire on February 17, when the first issue is published. And remember, only subscribers to the magazine will get access to it online, and to additional premium content as well. Don’t wait. Don’t postpone. And definitely don’t forget.

We can’t deny it: This past year was, with all of its challenges, a great year for us.  We saw hundreds of old friends — and made a similar number of new friends, all across the region.  We traveled the world, and enjoyed innumerable good times at home.  Most importantly … we introduced CEE Legal Markets to the world.  Yes … 2013 was a pretty great year.

But we also have to be honest: We expect 2014 to be even better.  The first issue of the CEE Legal Markets magazine will be completed and available in February, 2014, and with it we will have formally and completely launched our new venture: Introducing the premiere and go-to source of information, news, analysis and opinion about the lawyers and legal markets of this wonderful, challenging, dramatically growing part of the world.

As 2013 comes to a close, CEE dominates the news.  Continuing unrest in Turkey.  Maidan Square in Ukraine.  The release of political prisoners in Russia leading up to the 2014 Winter Olympic Games in Sochi.  And on and on and on.  The world is watching … and we intend to add unique and much-needed perspectives.

So we say good-bye to the old year and greet the new year with a perfect combination of excitement, pleasure, and anticipation.  We hope all of our readers share our hopes for 2014, and that their own adventures bring similar challenges and rewards, opportunities, friendships, and growth. 

Add a dollop of charity and an occasional helping hand, and you have a recipe for a fantastic year.  

Merry Christmas, and Happy New Year, CEE!

The Editors,

David Stuckey and Radu Cotarcea
