Some exciting changes are coming to the Above the Law masthead.

Breaking Media — the leading online B2B media company and publisher of Dealbreaker, Above the Law, Fashionista, Breaking Defense, Breaking Energy, and Above the Law Redline — announces new staff promotions to leverage its editorial talent across all of its brands.

Elie Mystal (editor Above the Law/Above the Law Redline) is being promoted to Breaking Media Editor-at-Large and Managing Editor of ATL Redline. As Editor-at-Large, Mystal will be responsible for bringing Above the Law’s legal expertise to other Breaking Media brands through weekly columns, and will also work with advertisers and sponsors to create content solutions for their promotional needs. As Managing Editor for Redline, Mystal will continue to bring legal news, insights, and entertainment to non-lawyers across a variety of subjects leveraging Gawker Media’s Kinja platform. Mystal has been with Above the Law since 2008, and will maintain a weekly column there focusing on legal education.

Staci Zaretsky and Joe Patrice (assistant editors of Above the Law) have been promoted to Editors of the brand. Zaretsky has been with the company since 2010, while Patrice joined in 2012. Both editors will continue to focus on the breaking news, industry analysis, and entertaining stories that have made Above the Law one of the most widely read legal publications in the country.

We are also pleased to announce that Nina Frazier Hansen (Creative Director of Fashionista) has assumed the role of Creative Director for Breaking Media. She will continue to work with Fashionista as well as the entire Breaking Media portfolio to enhance the user experience in all of our verticals.

Breaking Media believes that these moves will allow the company to bring new and quality content to all of our readers and fans. Congratulations to Elie, Staci, Joe, and Nina.
