In the world of online legal research, we often think
only of premium services like Westlaw, Lexis, and Bloomberg. In this workshop,
we’ll tour the broader landscape of valuable online legal research tools. We’ll
explore strategies for cost-effectively performing a range of research tasks. In
addition to navigating primary sources, we’ll take a look at forms, sample
documents, business and industry information, news, visualizations, intellectual
property tools and more.
Plus, bring your legal research
challenges. We’ll save some time for processing difficult queries. If you wish,
email the presenter ahead of time with your most demanding legal research
questions: mcarlson@mnbar.org
.
About the Presenter: Mike served 10 years at
Thomson Reuters as a Reference Staff Attorney where he performed legal research,
analyzed feedback, and provided trainings. Mike now serves the online services
team at the Minnesota State Bar Association.
