Just hours after The New Lawyer reports Blake Dawson and Deacons are Twittering for clients, at least two more firms open Twitter accounts.

Following The New Lawyer’s report yesterday on the increasing use of social networking site Twitter by law firms and lawyers alike, a host of firms followed suit. Just hours after The New Lawyer reported that both Deacons and Blake Dawson were seeing some success and better access to clients via Twitter, both DLA Phillips Fox and Tresscox Lawyers opened new Twitter accounts. Meanwhile comments on the story flowed in from readers, and one Twitterer said: “I would like to see some white shoe firms on here … that actually communicate with the public."
