History

The company was started in 1979 by Steven Brill to publish The American Lawyer.

In February 1997, Brill sold ALM to Time Warner, mainly for its CourtTV stake.[1]

In July 1997, ALM's legal publications were acquired from Time Warner by U.S. Equity Partners, L.P., a private equity fund sponsored by Bruce Wasserstein.[2]

In October 1997, it acquired National Law Publishing Company (parent of The National Law Journal and New York Law Journal) from Boston Ventures and the legal publications of Legal Communications (including The Legal Intelligencer) from Meridian Venture Partners.[3]

In 2007, ALM was purchased by Incisive Media for Template:US$ million.[4] Two years later, Incisive had to restructure the loan used to purchase ALM, and ALM once again became an independent company, owned by the lenders and Apax Partners.[5][6][7]

Wasserstein & Co. repurchased ALM in 2014.[8][9][10][11][12]

In 2015, ALM acquired Summit Professional Networks.[13]

In January 2016, ALM acquired British legal magazine Legal Week.[14]

In March 2025, ALM merged with Law Business Research (LBR).[15]

In May 2025, ALM completed the corporate spin-off of Touchpoint Markets, which owns ThinkAdvisor, BenefitsPRO, PropertyCasualty360, GlobeSt, and Credit Union Times.[16] In July 2025, Arc Networks, owned by EagleTree Capital, acquired TouchPoint Markets.[17][18]
