Description

Tap into the world’s most preferred legal research service wherever you go! The Westlaw app – available for iPad and iPhone – is the most awarded legal research app as voted by industry professionals and recognized by The National Law Journal, New York Law Journal, the Best of the Midwest, and more. With the Westlaw mobile app, you can extend the power and collaboration capabilities of Westlaw so research begun in one place can be continued on your mobile device – anytime, anywhere.

“The Westlaw app is very well-designed and easy to use, making it simple to get legal research done when you are in court or otherwise out of the office. In fact, the app is so nice that I will often use it even when I am in my office, doing my legal research on the iPad while my brief is open on my computer.” – Jeff Richardson, iPhone J.D. in ABA Journal

Access the same research features you rely on such as WestSearch, KeyCite, Search Filters, Folders, History, Notes, and Highlighting, which have all been redesigned for the iPad and iPhone. In addition to core research functionality, the Westlaw app offers the ability to save documents while online and offline to research folders, and deliver documents via email, print, or download.

Westlaw Edge users also have exclusive access to additional, premium features such as KeyCite Overruling Risk, WestSearch Plus, and more, which are automatically included based on your subscription.

Unusable for students

Do you guys seriously not read these reviews? Surely enough people have pointed out that this app is completely unusable if you have an institutional login provided by your university. I am studying with the Open University and have access to Westlaw as part of that (via OpenAthens). But I cannot use that with this app. Why is this, and when will you remedy it?

Developer Response ,

This Westlaw app currently is intended only for users of the U.S. version of Westlaw (wherever they may live), and a U.S. Westlaw account is required to access the app. The app is not compatible with Westlaw UK.

Needs a lot of TLC

As a final year Law student with an English degree and five years of experience working in online comms, I can offer a descriptive list on the many aspects of this app requiring some TLC. Starting with the login issues mentioned in all the reviews. Is there someone at Reuters reading the comments and open to working together to improve this? This app is necessary! Cheers!

P.S. I don’t care if this sounded like a a cover letter - just looking to fix this.

Useless

Completely agree with other review - as a law student with academic access this app will not work. It does appear Thomson Reuters are only making available to full subscribers. I’d have even paid for the app if it allowed access from Shibboleth login, as I’m sure would thousands of other students - so they have really missed a trick here!
