Legal media boost in-house content

Media start-up Crafty Counsel is partnering with LexisNexis to share a range of content for in-house lawyers.

Subscribers will be able to access Crafty Counsel videos for in-house counsel from within LexisPSL, the practical guidance and intelligence database. In turn, selected guidance from LexisPSL will supplement video material on Crafty Counsel’s website.

Crafty Counsel videos explain practice areas such as contract negotiation, ethics, creating value, and stakeholder management. The videos will be embedded in LexisPSL’s practical guidance, making it easier for in-house teams to understand the information.

The two media companies also intend to collaborate on a range of educational video content, to be launched in the coming months.  

Emma Dickin, head of in-house content at LexisNexis, said LexisPSL was ‘already the main port of call for many in-house counsel…Now, with Crafty Counsel’s videos, the range of content has improved further still.’

Ben White, founder of Crafty Counsel, said: ‘Adding our videos to LexisPSL will do more to help in-house teams to solve problems and upskill.’
