Abstract

As a summer clerk or full-time associate at a law firm (or as a solo practitioner), you are likely to encounter research projects for which neither Lexis nor Westlaw is a good option. Perhaps the material isn't available on these databases at all. Or, your firm may have a limited subscription that excludes the information you need. You also may find that some content on Lexis or Westlaw costs more than your firm or client is willing to pay. In these circumstances, it's important to know that the two most prominent databases used by lawyers are not the only ones available. Many firms subscribe to additional research services to bridge any gaps in content and save money.
