What is American Legal Publishing?

What is their history and why do cities use them?
In Some Infernal Metaphors for Understanding NYC’s Government footnote 8, Daniel Golliher says of American Legal Publishing’s publishing of the New York City Charter:

For NYC this is laid out primarily, but not entirely, in our city charter, which is published and updated for the public by a seemingly random publishing company in Cincinnati, OH. It’s hundreds of pages that our legislators don’t take any care to make easily legible (not even to themselves). Nonetheless, I am not deterred.
