In his latest column, attorney Jeffrey B. Simon walks us through his current climate accountability case. In June 2023, we filed suit on behalf of Multnomah County against several large energy companies and allied trade organizations. We contend that energy industry insiders played God with the lives of innocent and vulnerable people by selling as much oil, gas and coal as they could while lying about how much harm to American communities pollution from those products would likely cause. We know from internal corporate documents that some of the oil companies we sued understood more than 50 years ago that carbon emissions from the fossil fuel products they sold were polluting the atmosphere at a high rate and would cause the Earth’s surface temperature to substantially rise.

At PIMCon 2024, Chris Dreyer sat down with attorney Matthew Dolman to discuss the latest trends in content marketing. Matthew shared that the days of ranking 1 or 2 for vanity terms (i.e., car accident attorney) are past. Instead, firms should focus on longtail keywords and phrases – answering potential client’s questions. And while the focus is often on creating content, Matthew said refreshing that content is a key factor to achieving top rankings and maintaining them. His advice was to refresh or update converting content every quarter (unless your practice is in an area that requires more frequent updates). Beyond creating content (and updating it), Matthew also delved into the concept of content pruning. Not all content should stay on your website forever. Firms should regularly review content to ensure it's still providing valuable information.
