Brett Burney reviews the Lex Machina legal analytics platform from LexisNexis for Legaltech News:
You’ve heard a lot of talk about “big data,” but what application could that possibly have in a law practice? As a litigator, you actually have to analyze a lot of data such as: What’s the best court to file in? How has the judge ruled on similar matters? How many times has opposing counsel appeared before this judge? And how successful have they been? All of this information is accessible and available, but someone has to go through it all to find exactly what you need.
What if there was a service that could mine all that information for you and answer your specific questions? How powerful would that be for your practice?
