Your personnel can contact us either on-line or by telephone, and obtain a response within hours of your inquiry. Our Legal Department is available twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week and can accommodate rush requests. We invite you to visit our website or call us to learn more about our innovative legal research solution.

The site makes it simple and cost-effective to get a legal question answered: a lawyer or designated corporate contact submits an issue by phone or on-line, and receives an answer within hours of the inquiry. The reply is a research memorandum summarizing the law on the issue. Legal documentation supplement the memo, and may include federal and state case law, regulations, statutes, and secondary materials.

The benefits of outsourcing legal research are two-fold: it saves lawyers time and money. Outsourcing increases productivity levels by freeing time to work on non-delegable matters, such as client meetings, discovery, depositions, and trials. It is also cost-efficient\x97the research is delivered at a significantly lower rate than the costs of a junior associate or a temporary employment agency.
