Nemeth Burwell's New Web Site Receives Second Major Award: The Detroit-based employment law firm Nemeth Burwell P.C. announced that the firm's new Web site, www.nemethburwell.com, has been honored with a prestigious international "Webby" award in the legal website category for its usability, functionality and overall visual appeal. More than 8,000 entries were submitted to the 14th Annual Webby Awards, the majority of which are website nominations, and fewer than 15 percent were distinguished as an official honoree. This is the second major award bestowed on Nemeth Burwell's Web site. In late 2010, the site was awarded top honors in the Interactive Media Awards competition, offered by the Interactive Media Council Inc., which recognize the highest standards of excellence in Web site design and development and honors individuals and organizations for their outstanding achievement. The new site was launched in September to reflect Nemeth Burwell's growth and showcase the firm's depth and breadth of expertise in management-side employment and labor law, as well as its geographic reach. Established in 1996 during the Web's infancy, the Webbys are presented by The International Academy of Digital Arts and Sciences, which includes an executive 750-member body of leading Web experts, business figures, luminaries, visionaries and creative celebrities, and associate members who are former Webby winners and nominees and other Internet professionals.
