For generations, you could find Heins and Marmions at the helm of the William S. Hein & Co., one of the last independent legal publishers in America. The torch has been passed to a new generation of Heins and Marmions, with Shannon Hein and Shane Marmion (also recognized with a Fastcase 50 award this year) taking leadership positions in the company. Hein has made one of the most successful transitions from print to digital, and Shannon has led the company to make its products essential in law schools around the world.
