Overall Satisfaction with Thomson Reuters Practical Law

Legal research and staying on top of new news in my arena: Search for specific content related to new legislation and case law; see if there are any trends related to new legal issues; and get updated on legal news, not in my area of specialty.

Pros

  • News articles.
  • Specific content on areas of law.
  • Research jury verdicts and dispositive motions decisions.

Cons

  • Easier interface.
  • More searchable features.
  • Cost
  • Cost savings related to proactive training is easily in the hundreds of thousands.
  • Having various types of content available in one platform makes research efficient.
  • I have used Practical Law to search for judgments and lessons learned from my training sessions for our leadership.
They stack up generally the same, but the interface and layout are just different. Lexis and Westlaw seem to be better for case law and citations, but Practical Law is better for legislation and articles that get to the point of what I need without having to read a case.
