I am very happy with Casetext- I have access to all of the state and federal case law for less than I was paying for Lexis, which gave me only federal and one state

Good value, user friendly and good customer support

There is nothing I can think of really, I am very happy with casetext.

Support is excellent, not that it is needed much. It is feature rich, easy to use and nice layout.

Is great tool for drilling down to find cases that are on point.

It works really well, nothing I really dislike. If I have to pick something I wish it had a way to allow the user to build folders and save cases/bookmark cases under the folder for easy reference. I also wish you could receive alerts on specific statutes, case, or black letter law items to be notified if a new case is published.

Terrible. It is a poor product with awful customer service.

The price is cheap. The software is easy to set up.

Terrible customer service. The company engages in shady business practices.

The use of Casetext is one of the best desisions I have made and would not hesitate to recomend it to anyone.

Easy to use and very reliable. Research results are on the spot. Casetext is my choice for legal research in over 35 years experience in the legal profession. Casetext has so many tools available and makes research very easy.

At first, it takes a little getting used to, but Casetext offers instructional webinars and a very good customer service. Once you learn the basics and all that Castext has to offer, using Castext becomes second nature.

I just completed an Appellate Brief and Casetext really made it quick and easy for me to find cases that were on point. I am very pleased with Casetext and I have shared my experience with others, encouraging them to give Casetext a try.

Casetext is extremely user-friendly, whenever I need to pull up relevant caselaw, or run a Complaint or Motion through Casetext, I am always pleased with the results. Casetext is very innovative and sensitive to the needs of its customer base. I don't know what I can say to give you more ideas, as it seems you are very creative with your programs and seminars through your own abilities. Thank you for being such a wonderful service provider.

No cons coming from here! I cannot think of anything that I do not like about Casetext.

Casetext is perfect for a small law firm. The content, search functions, and accessibility is incredible, especially for the price. And the CARA function, which allows the user to upload pleadings and briefs to search for relevant authorities is amazing. I am duly impressed and have recommended Casetext to my friends and colleagues.

The software could be improved by including more practice guide materials.

I like that I can find cases almost as soon as they're reported. Also, I like the brief checking feature. That's been helpful. I find it easy to identify other cases nationwide that would be helpful to my work.

I'd like Casetext to have legislative histories and more secondary materials when there isn't case law available.

The flexibility of CARA is my favourite feature, and how straightforward it is to set up to align with each organisation's specific needs. I find it very user friendly. The Generis team are also very collaborative with a real "can do" attitude to our business challenges and always come up with innovative solutions and new ways that we could use their tool to help streamline our activities.

I would like to see more investment into AI type engines within this tool and the ability to mine information from documents, auto-classify, etc.

We use it for legal research.

The ease of using casetext and its AI feature produces great research results beyond what my opponents find. What an advantage it provides.

That is does not yet cover the federal sentencing guidelines

An overall excellent experience as Casetext is intuitive and I trust the searches are comprehensive.

Casetext provides high quality, intuitive legal research capabilities for a truly good value. I'll never go back to the others.

I wish there were more secondary sources.

Very good. There are still some areas that need improvement.

This is a fantastic, lower-cost alternative to Lexis and Westlaw which also has certain innovative tools of its own that are well worth the time to get to know. In addition, the developers are quite keen to help and to understand practitioners' needs -- indeed, several team members are or were practitioners, apparently.

Results appear in a pane on the lefthand side of the screen. There are boxes where you can check or uncheck, say, a jurisdiction, or statute set, etc. That all works well. But then, to the right of whatever results have been returned, you will see the number of, for example, cases responsive to your search query. Clicking on that number operates the same as unclicking the box, and not to open up, selectively, those results. That I do not like. Casetext does not need BOTH a box to check or uncheck a source or jurisdiction AND a way to do the same by checking on the number of results returned, and so should make use of the number of results returned to allow the user to open up just those results (and not all others), so to, example, see the lists of all cases returned by the search in the SDNY, or whatever. In addition, some of the cases appear with errors -- albeit rarely. More frequently, a case will not cross-reference or show pagination for a parallel reporter, or can be found in one reporter only, but not the other, parallel produce. Also, sometimes cases will be flagged for negative treatment inaccurately. For example, in one instance it reported that a U.S. Supreme Court case had been superseded by a district court opinion from the Federal Supplement. Obviously, that's not how it works, and the particular Supreme Court case in question remains the key case for guidance on the particular fuzzy topic involved -- here it was a facet of RICO law.

I like it for my normal legal research for federal and state criminal cases, but I also really appreciate that I have access to other states outside of my jurisdiction. And I wasn't charged an arm and a leg like Westlaw prices.

The value. I've looked at a number of other legal research subscriptions and this was by far the cheapest. But even though it wasn't too expensive it still seems to have most of (if not all) of what Lexis and Westlaw have. I also saw they have a brief bank. I've never used it, but now that I figured out they do, I want to use it.

I don't have many complaints about the product. I would like more training so that I am using it properly and to its full potential, but that is more on me and not taking the time to fully dig around the website.

I have been quite pleased with my decision to switch to CaseText, and have no intention to change, although I have been courted by other companies, even recently.

First, I must admit that the price was quite attractive, but I was skeptical as to what it might provide. However, I was soon quite pleasantly surprised by the breadth of the information that was available to me, and the relative ease I had to be able to gain access. I found the use of CARA especially useful in instances, and found CaseText overall much more friendly and expedient than either Lexis or West products, both of which I have previously used. I have actually recommended CaseText to several of my colleagues.

I really do not have any criticism of the software except there are times I apparently do not phrase things that immediately lead to results, but I attribute that to my lack of knowledge about using the software, not the software itself. I refer to CaseText when I have an issue I need to brief of need a quite citation for, but I do not use it every day.

I used replaced Lexis with this when opening my solo practice due to cost concerns. Based on the free trial I believed that Casetext would be comparable to Lexis. The annual cost for this program was 1/12 the cost of my Lexis subscription. It's been worth ever penny.

I love that the search feature is similar to Lexis, which is what I had used for my entire career of 15 years. It is easy to use, easy to filter results and search terms are highlighted for ease of reference.

Sometimes I have to play with the natural language search a little more to get the results I am after but it's not so difficult that I would switch programs. I just have to work at it a little more. It would be helpful to have a pay-per-search for public records; I don't use it so often that I would want to pay for the annual subscription but would pay per use because I could pass that on to an individual client.

Just as functional as the big names but for a fraction of the cost.

It's minor (and it may be user error), but I wish I could bring up specific California Code Sections as quickly as I can find them on Bing or Google.

When my lexis contract ends, it won't be renewed; I'll rely on Casetext for all my legal research.

Easy to use. I find it more robust than Westlaw and Lexis - especially for the price.

I really don't have an issue with this product. No cons? Yes, no cons.

I've stopped using its competitors/contemporaries for primary source legal research. It is just a cleaner, more versatile product for such purposes

Casetext is quite versatile, is very reasonably priced, is simple to use despite not being a simplistic product, has great tech support, and is constantly being improved. It is everything I (and you should) look for in a legal research tool.

The biggest con was that it did not provide state regulatory materials, but that is one of the improvements that has been subsequently added. It would be nice to have secondary sources of research as well, but that would not doubt significantly increase the cost of the product.

The information to provide great briefs and pleadings for my clients in many aspects of the law.

The thoroughness of Casetext is what I like most about this software. I have experience with other legal software, but there is a surprising comfort and confidence that comes with using Casetext. So many legal writers (attorneys, paralegals, etc.) merely use the "common" cases to complete motions and briefs - many times not even checking to see if they are truly applicable to the case at hand. Casetext helps you find the right case for the job - and, allows you to find what is wrong/inappropriate about other's citings.

They have just improved a "con" by enabling the parallel case button in the program. An excellent tool to upgrade to.

Super easy to you. I like how it links other cases to certain paragraphs in the opinions.

I wish it offered secondary sources, such as treatises.

Still a relative newbie

1. The scope of the available resources; 2. The price compared to other services

NY State citations do not include the County or Department of the case. I miss the Key Cite feature of Westlaw, which is not available here. I've not been able to have success with the A.I. feature.

Better than other computer legal research systems I have used, but I do miss the traditional methods of research

I am a Senior Lawyer who has started doing research 50 years ago. My how things have changed since then. I have found that Casetext has been helpful in specialized areas of Estate Planning and Probate. If I have a specialized code section or other aspect of a case I can usually find some authority on points. I think it is as good as any other computerized system for less money.

Since I was originally trained using the legal digest and case books, I still feel more comfortable using these tools to do legal or other types of research. I can get overwhelmed with authorities or cases that are not quite on point.

Very good

Breaking down the category and jurisdiction is very easy to use.

At least for my state, I am not sure I am getting the search results I need for workers compensation litigation. In Tennessee, the cases are published but I don't see many WC bureau cases pop up when searching.

Love it

Its not Lexis is the best thing about it. It is fairly priced and fully functional

I wish I could more easily Shepardize cases and find negative law

Casetext is an affordable, easily-accessed and user-friendly online legal research service. I recommend this service for value and utility in my legal practice. Casetext has been an extremely useful and important asset to my practice.

Casetext is an affordable, easily-accessed and user-friendly online legal research service. I unqualifiedly recommend this service for value and assistance in my legal practice.

There are some limitations in accessing unreported cases and trial court decisions.

Excellent! They really believe in customer service. I use CaseText as my first and foremost legal research tool.

Month to month contract, simple interface

Its not as robust as the higher tier products, and I still have to use the higher tier products sometimes
