Case Law Research

We provide precise and detailed case law research, focusing on both federal and state court decisions that are directly relevant to your legal issues. ​

Our research includes:​

• Published and unpublished case decisions: Ensuring that all relevant decisions, regardless of publication status, are considered.

• Jurisdiction-specific precedents: Whether you need cases from specific appellate districts or Supreme Court rulings, we target the right jurisdictions to find applicable precedents.

• Shepardizing and KeyCiting: We analyze case law to confirm that the authorities you rely on are still valid and have not been overruled or negatively treated.

Statutory Research

In-depth research into statutes, codes, and ordinances is conducted at all levels of government.

This includes:​

• Federal and state statutes: Research is performed on the U.S. Code, state statutes, and municipal codes to ensure compliance with the most up-to-date laws.

• Specific provisions: The exact legal language and interpretation of specific statutory provisions are identified, along with insights into how they apply to the case.

• Annotated codes: Annotated versions of statutes are used to provide case law and administrative decisions that clarify the meaning and application of laws.

Regulatory Research

Administrative regulations play a critical role in many legal matters, especially in areas such as labor law, healthcare, environmental law, and business compliance. Our regulatory research includes:

• Federal regulations (CFR): We dive into the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) to locate relevant rules from federal agencies.

• State-level administrative codes: For matters governed by state agencies, we conduct research into state administrative regulations and decisions.

• Guidance and advisory opinions: We track down agency guidance, advisory opinions, and informal interpretations that may impact how regulations are applied to your case.

Legislative History

Understanding the intent behind statutes is essential for statutory interpretation. Comprehensive legislative history research is offered, including:

• Bill drafts and amendments: The evolution of statutes is traced through various legislative drafts and amendments to understand how and why changes were made.

• Legislative debates and hearings: Transcripts of legislative debates and committee hearings are located to provide context on the lawmakers' intent.

• Committee reports and analysis: Committee reports and legislative analysis are reviewed to clarify the purpose and scope of laws.
