History
Established in 1822 as Law Journal. Amalgamated with Law Times to become New Law Journal in 1965. From 1947 till 1965 Butterworths published two weekly journals – the Law Journal and the Law Times. These were different in style and readership, but there was a strong case for rationalisation. Largely at the urging of Richard Millett when he was Chairman, the two were amalgamated at the New Law Journal. Tom Harper, till the then the editors of the Law Society’s Gazette, agreed to become the first editor of the new journal.
