The Web Marketing Association is looking for the best legal websites in the world as part of their 17th annual international WebAward Competition for Web site development at www.webaward.org. The WebAwards is the standards-defining competition that sets benchmarks for 96 industries, including legal websites, based on the seven criteria of a successful web site.

specific scores compared against the average scores for their industry. They
also may receive specific comments from the WebAward’s professional judging
panel on their Web site development efforts.
