CHICAGO, Jan. 11, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Jenner & Block today announced that it has launched its new Web site at www.jenner.com. The Web site has been completely redesigned to enhance the user experience and offers new features and expanded content.
Visit www.jenner.com and the opening video loop sets the contemporary tone of the new site and visually communicates the power of the exceptional people who define Jenner & Block. It includes footage shots from all four of the Firm's offices – Chicago, Los Angeles, New York and Washington, D.C. – and its energy and activity reflect the Firm's dynamic position in the profession.
"With our new Web site, we highlight three distinguishing elements of Jenner & Block – our exceptional people, the excellence of our work and our service to our clients, the profession and the community," said Susan C. Levy, Managing Partner of Jenner & Block. "Through the design and the content, we convey what has always set us apart – while making it easier for visitors to access information about our practices and attorneys."
Jenner & Block client work takes center stage on the home page with the "Excellence Delivered" feature, which highlights a balance of current litigation, transactional and pro bono matters. News and awards listings round out this initial snapshot of what's happening at Jenner & Block.
In the "About Us" section, key new features include expanded office pages with more information about the work and pro bono and public service of each location and an enhanced Diversity / Inclusion section that will include "In Their Words" testimonials from attorneys at the Firm.
The "Our People" section is the searchable gateway to learn more about our attorneys, and its functionality has been expanded and made more intuitive and easy to use. Searches result in the assembly of the applicable attorney photos, creating a visual map of the information being sought and emphasizing the Firm's diversity.
Jenner & Block's commitment to pro bono and public service is highlighted in the revised and expanded "Our Public Service" section. This includes an "In Their Words" testimonial section with powerful descriptions from the Firm's attorneys about their pro bono and public service experiences and what it adds to their lives and practice.
The "Join Us" section showcases what makes Jenner & Block a great place to work and highlights information law students, laterals and judicial clerks need to know about joining the Firm. Another new feature is the "Your Path at Jenner & Block" section. "Your Path" lays out the focus areas and training/development support attorneys receive at three levels within the firm – Junior Associate, Mid-Level/Senior Associate and Partner. Testimonials from attorneys at each level highlighting their unique experiences are also provided in a question and answer format. Our Summer Associate section also includes Q& A testimonials and a blog-like description of one associate's experience in the program.
Another new part of the site is the "Library" section which is the gateway to the Firm's database of assets – every news item, publication, event description, etc. is accessible. It is searchable by keyword and users can filter results by type, resource center or practice area. Making the search function easier and more functional was a major focus of the redesign of www.jenner.com.
Perhaps the most exciting new functionality of the site is a little icon in the upper right corner of every page of the site called "Your Virtual File." By clicking it, visitors can collect multiple pieces of site information or materials into a separate file that can be emailed to a client or colleague.
