We can  help you with –

  • Focusing and narrowing your research topic
  • Constructing searches in Lexis, Westlaw and other databases, including natural language searches, terms and connectors searches, and AI prompts (when this is an option)
  • Making sure your sources are still “good law” – think Shepard’s and KeyCite help
  • And more!
