But in building the foundations of a strong legal case you also need access to impeccable case law research. Factors contributing to <a href=\"https:\/\/legal.thomsonreuters.com.au\/products\/westlaw\/westlaw.aspx?utm_source=legalinsight&amp;utm_medium=legalinsight&amp;utm_campaign=westlaw-awareness\">best-in-class legal research<\/a> include trusted sources, ease of use to save your valuable time and breadth of database information.&nbsp;<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>If raising the bar on\nyour case and precedent search methodologies form part of your 2020 goals,\nyou\u2019re on the right page. We\u2019ve pulled together six ways to help advance your legal\nresearch. Pick and choose from the ideas detailed below and your\nclients&nbsp;are sure to reap the benefits.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Keep your searches simple<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>While preparing for a complex case, it\u2019s not uncommon for <a href=\"http:\/\/insight.thomsonreuters.co.nz\/posts\/barristers-beware-of-the-desktop-discounting-trap\">research methodologies to get overly complicated<\/a>. One scenario you may have experienced time and again is filling out multiple fields to help narrow down your search results. While this is one way to go about it, it\u2019s not the most efficient. An hour may go by and you still haven\u2019t found the case you were looking for! The best approach? Keep it simple. If your legal research tool does not offer you a straightforward way to pull up search results, consider alternatives. Some paid research technologies in the market are built with refined smart technology, enabling you to search intuitively for whatever you start typing&nbsp;in the search box, yielding accurate results. Of course, there may be times where you have a niche research requirement, but your first port of call should always be to simply type away.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Query cases quickly&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As part of your legal\nresearch, you\u2019ll often ask&nbsp;yourself whether the case, statute, regulation\nor administrative decision you are reviewing is still good law. The less clicks\nto achieve this, the better.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some legal research platforms rely on foolproof systems to flag problems and can alert you to anything related to the decision. Making use of such features in your research tool helps you connect the dots quickly and build good evidence. If you want to stay up to date on an ongoing case, your research tool (whether free or via a paid subscription or licence) may offer you alerts, so you are in the loop on relevant case law developments moving forward. This could make or break a case for you in court, so ensure you set this up in advance and leave no stone unturned when it comes to being across related cases in your area or areas of law.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Advance your research skills<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As professionals, it can be hard to seek help when we hit a roadblock. Ideally, a problem shared is a problem solved. So, if you are a sole practitioner or Barrister who pays to access legal research, reach out to your provider when you get stuck. Generally speaking, there should be a customer care team to chat with when needed.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You may even have\naccess to a training course that provides granular tips and tricks on getting\nthe most out of your legal research solution, which can also offer a new avenue\nfor networking. The outcome of actioning help in this way will raise the bar on\nthe quality and efficiency of your legal research outcome, which is a win for\nyou and your clients.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Speed read efficiently&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>So far we\u2019ve talked\nabout cutting down the steps and the time it takes to get to the answer. Well,\nonce you reach the right precedent or case, reviewing materials more\nefficiently can make all the difference in certain moments. This is not to be\nmistaken for rushing things. While your clients expect due diligence, this\ndoesn\u2019t mean spending your time inefficiently.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Drawing on features\noffered within your legal research tool, such as \u201creading mode\u201d and text search\ncan help you speed read. Of course, the same goes for your note-taking as part\nof the speed-reading process. While you are speed reading, pause and\ninvestigate flagged text your legal research provider has included in the body\nof writing.&nbsp;By combining the passive act of reading with these active\nreading tools you can digest huge parcels of relevant information, enabling you\nto represent your clients more effectively in court. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Reap the benefits of case law browsing<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Earlier we considered\nthe advantages of removing unnecessary steps to reach the case law and\nlegislation you are looking for. While this is best practice, sometimes you\u2019re\nlooking to get a broader view of the topic to keep yourself up to date on the\nlatest cases, or your search may be very narrow and you just don\u2019t know where\nto start. This is where the benefit of subject matter browsing comes in.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some research portals\nshowcase a range of practice areas or topics that you can scroll through with\nease, prompting you to drill down to the specific issue or relevant area of law.\nTraditional search engines typically don\u2019t offer this, but this is a great way\nto easily connect with exactly what you need. Being able to navigate the databases\nin this way can dramatically reduce response time.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Customise the experience<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>To give your legal\nresearch experience that valuable edge, it\u2019s a good idea to make full use of\nthe features your research provider offers, such as advanced customisation.\nYour search patterns and needs will differ from your peers, as will those of\nyour clients differ from each other. One approach is not going to be the answer\nfor everyone. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Customisation is\ndesigned to recognise and respond to these patterns and needs, making your\nresearch requirements for certain matters and clients a breeze. Also, instead\nof having multiple tabs open at once, opt for the legal research tool that\nremembers your last session. That way, you can pick up your research right\nwhere you left off.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another customisation\ntip is to set your research portal as your browser&#8217;s home screen or save\ncustomised databases by area of law or client. Finding the right legal research\ntool can make all the difference to you and clients.&nbsp;Raising the bar on\nyour legal research may be just one click away!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>How will you raise the bar on your legal research in 2020?
