LexisNexis, a leading global provider of content-enabled workflow
solutions, today announced the launch of LexisNexis® Related Content, a
new feature at lexis.com® that enhances case law research by
drawing on an exclusive mix of sources to surface and link to documents
that provide additional support and analysis for case law documents.
Integrated within case law,
the new feature helps lawyers and
other legal professionals gain a more comprehensive understanding of a
particular case, supporting arguments, and other legal issues that may
have a bearing on the case.
"Our new Related Content feature minimizes the need for additional
searches for content related to a case or subject by serving up links
directly within the normal workflow of using lexis.com,” said
Steven Zubrzycki, LexisNexis vice president of operations for Research &
Litigation. "For legal professionals, this means quickly finding the
critical content that matters most to a case, as well as more focused
and efficient use of time when conducting research.”
The three key areas of Related Content that provide additional insight,
analysis and enhanced navigation are:
-
Full case-related documents: Legal professionals arrive at more
sound decisions when they have a thorough understanding of case law
and associated legal issues, and the new Related Content feature helps
them do so with Official Reports PDFs; related court materials like
Briefs, Pleadings, Motions and Dockets; and premium case analysis like
Case in Brief and Expert Commentaries.
-
Issue Analysis: Providing critical context and analysis on
issues related to a case, lexis.com users now can quickly
access content including ALR®, Am Jur®, State Jurisprudences, Matthew
Bender® and Law Review documents.
-
Document Outline: Links and navigational aids to help the user
navigate quickly and easily to various parts of a case law document.
