What do you like best about Lexis® for Microsoft® Office?

Lexis for Microsoft Office is a plugin that lets you access the best of Lexis Nexis while drafting legal documents using Microsoft office. There are many advantages to this plug-in. The major advantage of Lexis for Microsoft Office is that it saves you time. It does this by cutting down on time spent formatting and providing you with quick access to research and precedent.

The document tools will allow you to check citation, quotes and create a table of authority

First, it will check your citations to let you know if they have been formatted correctly. Within this tool you can shepardize your citations in real-time to determine whether or not you want to include the source, or find other sources. You can also use the "get cited docs" function to access Shepard’s information from Lexis and it will suggest additional sources, in addition to providing you with a Shepard's analysis of your cited source.One of the best features is “cases,” which allows you to locate precedent or sample docs. You can access cases, briefs, etc. from the right hand display panel and drag and drop.It also provides you acces to “Guidance,” which is great for transactional attorneys looking for resources. however, the search and display tools are underrated. The search and display tools allow you to conduct research while you are drafting your document.Basically, you can search from the document without opening up a new browser. The point is , I think, to cut down on distraction.There are other tools that I used sparingly like the pdf convert, or accessing practical guidance, both of which are super useful when you are practicing and need to convert a doc into a pdf for court etc.

These features really worked well for me and I am sure that they will work well for anyone who is familiar with the Lexis ecosystem. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Lexis® for Microsoft® Office?

The Table of Authorities function is designed to create or update a table of authorities in seconds. Basically, the software reviews your doc to create a table of authorities with appropriate page numbers.

You will have to work on the formatting of the table of authority that Lexis creates for you,but otherwise it is a really helpful feature. Moreover, the feature does allow you to format according to the specifications of your court, firm, or professor, so it is a helpful and timesaving tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Lexis® for Microsoft® Office solving and how is that benefiting you?

Finding additional sources to bolster my arguments. It really simplifies the process of researching. Moreover, checking citations is made simpler because it does the grunt work of checking your citations for you. Although, a quick review is always advisable to make sure that the citation is accurate using the check cite format tool. Another great thing about the check cite format tool is that it corrects all the citations, the parent and short cites, in the document.Lexis for Microsoft Office also allows you to check quotes using the so named feature. This feature allows you to verify your selected quotes against those in the original source, which will ensure that they are accurate and relevant.

Overall, the check cite, check quote, and table of authority features really cut down on the time you will spend making sure that your document is compliant with the relevant formatting rules. Moreover, these tools can point you in the direction of really helpful sources, and ensure that your use of precedential sources is relevant and accurate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
