law index

Our law-index is a substantial selection from our database. Cases here are restricted in number by date and lack the additional facilities formerly available within lawindexpro.
Please do enjoy this free version of the lawindex. Case law does not ‘belong’ to lawyers. Judgments are made up of words which can be read and understood (if not always easily) by most people. The more people who see the high quality of reasoning employed by judges, and occasionally the unmistakable spark of genius, the more they can perhaps feel some respect for the law.
