Want to take advantage of legal research solutions and resources without breaking the bank? Join us for a webinar on Free Law.
In addition to the best places to find free law, Tim will cover legal issues, including copyright, privacy, and public access.
Tim will cover the history, technology, and legal issues of organizations that provide free legal resources to the public. He will examine the beginnings of the Free Law movement by the Legal Information Institute at Cornell Law School in the early 1990s, before the existence of the World Wide Web, and how LII and the Web led to a movement of educational and other organizations providing free access to the laws of nations worldwide.
Tim will examine legal issues such as copyright, privacy, and public access that have changed how millions have accessed the law. He will review litigation and court decisions that have transformed the free law movement, including the HyperLaw and Public Resource cases. Tim will also investigate legal issues involving training AI with court records and government documents and the implications these issues might have for legal research and AI in general.
Tim will also present the best places to find free law online throughout the webinar, including Federal and US state, educational, and organization websites.
