Industry-Leading Legal Research

Fastcase is an industry-leading software designed to make legal research more comprehensive and intuitive. A complete nationwide law library, Fastcase has everything from case law and statutes to court rules and law review articles. The intuitive software democratizes legal services by allowing lawyers and law firms to move through their research smarter and faster.

 

Reviving Print in Legal Tech

Fastcase has long held its mission to democratize the law and make it more accessible to everyone. Recently, the company expanded on this by creating their own publishing imprint called Full Court Press. Full Court Press aims to reignite the dying print publishing industry within the legal field. Head publisher Morgan Morrissette Wright said about the venture, "While other publishers are eliminating the print model, we’re embracing the needs of many attorneys, who prefer to work with print books, so long as they are available at a reasonable price."

 

In today's world, it is much more likely for an attorney to be using a computer or reading an eBook, but most attorneys would actually prefer hardbound books for reference when working. Although Fastcase promises print books for lawyers who want them, they haven't outlawed eBooks altogether. Full Court Press offers an affordable selection of print and eBooks from multitudes of bar associations, individual authors, and other publishers.

 

Only the Best

Fastcase recognizes the importance of broadening knowledge in the legal industry and has created comprehensive resources with the aim of doing just that. Full Court Press ensures only the best and most inspiring legal research for attorneys to learn and stay up to date. Each publication under the Full Court Press umbrella is hand picked by head publisher and experienced attorney Morgan Morrissette Wright.

 

Its newest publication is titled On Legal AI and comes from author Joshua Walker, LexMachina and CodeX co-founder. His book delves into the murky waters of the relationship between AI and the law. The book is significant in that it uses hard, fact-based theory to analyze and create a recipe for developing legal AI.

 

 

Fastcase never stops aiming high in the legal tech field, and this new publishing arm is another example of why they are the industry leader in legal research. Learn more about Full Court Press's comprehensive selection of legal research and books by visiting their website.
