David Hechler is the Executive Editor of Corporate Counsel magazine (American Lawyer Media). His articles have won national awards from ABM (American Business Media) and the American Society of Business Publication Editors. He was previously an associate editor and reporter at The National Law Journal (another ALM publication).

In Good Hands (Pay What it Costs Publishing, LLC, 2016) is a book Hechler began researching in the 1990s. It’s about safety in day care, and it focuses on one family day care where two children died and a third was badly injured. But it wasn’t clear that the caregivers were to blame. Even after three murder trials, the South Carolina community in which these events occurred is divided.
