Legal Research: Rated M for Mature
Legal Apps
The Law Librarians of Puget Sound have put together a list of nine essential apps for legal practitioners. I like this list because it sticks to the essentials: four productivity apps and five legal research apps.
Most of these would be useful for Canadian legal research, apart from Fastcase and LawStack. I haven’t been able to find all-in-one Canadian alternatives to those products—seems like this area is ripe for innovation. Is this something CanLII might be able to take the lead on?
