The BNA Insights apps, for practitioners who require either focused analysis on a specific area of the law or broad coverage across all practice areas, is offered in six versions with more to come.

These bring together convenience and accessibility for legal practitioners who can now access them from anywhere. A Comprehensive version of the app offers access to the entire 2010-2011 catalog of over 1,800 BNA Insights articles and videos covering 18 different practice areas. All versions of the app are updated frequently with new articles and videos tracking major legal issues.

"BNA Insights go far beyond practical convenience and flexibility," said Michael Eisenstein, Vice President and Group Publisher for BNA's Legal & Business Publishing Group. "They are relied on by practitioners for influential perspectives and key guidance to support their decision making.  With this expansive selection of articles and videos now just a click away, practitioners have access to expert perspectives and real-world advice whether in their office, on the way to a meeting, or in the courthouse," said Eisenstein.

The comprehensive BNA Insights app, which launched in November 2011, was the first-of-its-kind for this unique content in the legal publishing industry.

"We are honored by this recognition from ACLEA for the BNA Insights iPad App," said Edwin Jackson, Director of Publishing for BNA's Legal & Business Publishing Group.
