“The Legal Library on LexisNexis Butterworths has freed up people’s time because it is instantaneous. We are getting work out of the door quicker and turning over more work. Our lock up – the period of time from the customer walking through the door to billing – has improved. That is our measure of profitability.”
Helen Thompson, Head of Dispute Resolution – SAS Daniels

Everybody in your practice can access the same information, at the same time, from any location, instantly, at the click of a mouse – people no longer need to share the same precious volumes; they simply log onto the LNB website, at any office, at home or even on the go;

• It makes research much, much quicker and easier – whatever you or your lawyers need to find, simply type your keywords into the search field and see all the results instantly. Then the service guides you to other relevant information enabling you to move seamlessly from cases to legislation to expert commentary;
• You can be 100% confident, as it provides accurate and comprehensive information – search the most authoritative coverage of UK legal materials simultaneously, safe in the hands of the most trusted UK legal publishing house. What’s more, all the material can be downloaded to Microsoft Word for drafting;
• You access constantly updated information – for instance, we provide a Stop Press twice a day to tell you when legislation has changed. And when the new Companies Act was released, it was available on LNB two weeks before any other online legal research service;
• It is far less expensive than you think – if you subscribe to the entire online library, you could end up paying up to 75% less than if you subscribed to all the individual sources.

The benefits of this service are so clear and overwhelming that every single one of the top 100 firms subscribes to it.
