The 140-year old lawyer directory, Martindale-Hubbell, has announced plans to partner with the social network, LinkedIn.  Martindale-Hubbell is a unit of LexisNexis, owned by British-based Reed Elsevier.  The two companies hope to remake the lawyer directory into a "global legal professional network" to be used by both clients and practicing attorneys.
