The launch, this week, by global legal information provider LexisNexis Legal & Professional, gives legal professionals in Ireland access to advanced research, tech-aided insights and practical guidance, all in one easy-to-use ecosystem.
‘We are delighted to launch Lexis+ in Ireland,’ said Sean Fitzpatrick, CEO, LexisNexis UK, Ireland and North America.
‘It’s intuitive and powerful user experience has already proven invaluable in other markets around the world. We have taken the time to build a solution that specifically meets the needs of the Irish market.
‘In today’s climate, lawyers are turning to technology to give them a competitive edge. By embracing Lexis+, lawyers will have easy access to comprehensive legal intelligence that will improve their productivity and their ability to deliver timely and strategic counsel.’
Lexis+ Ireland includes over 500 practice notes, precedents and checklists, up-to-date legislation and more than 20,000 Irish judgments, including the Irish Reports. Legal News Hub provides news from the MLex and Law360 brands, which are uniquely available from LexisNexis.
And there is more to come. LexisNexis will continue to add features, content and product integrations, such as an Irish Case Citator to provide a record of the history, subsequent treatment and current status of case law. Legislative Timeline graphically presents amendments to a legislative Act so lawyers can see at a glance what has changed and when.
Lexis+ Ireland has a range of innovative tech features that make it fast and easy to use—users can visually pinpoint key documents or sections of content using Search Term Maps. Pinned Sources give one-click access to regularly consulted publications, while Search Trees graphically illustrate how search terms are applied, making it simple to find what users need.
Richard Crouch, director of research solutions, LexisNexis UK & Ireland, said: ‘Lexis+ Ireland has been designed for the ways that lawyers work. Deeply integrated product components, cutting-edge technologies and modern design elements put LexisNexis applications, content and data that lawyers need right at their fingertips.
‘Regardless of where or how a user starts a legal task, they will be guided to the information that best addresses their legal question. By taking a customer-centric approach to product development, Lexis+ Ireland delivers a premium legal research experience that is powerful, intuitive and easy to use.’
