As previously communicated the Cases release will take place tonight. Please note Lawbook & Legal Online will be taken offline from 8-9pm(EST) to complete the migration.

What will I need to do?

We will take care of the detail and upgrade your subscription/s automatically. We will advise you when this upgrade is completed and how you can get the most out of your New Cases products.

Where will I find the New Cases Products once they Go Live?

If you log in to your cases products via Legal Onlinethe New Cases products will simply appear under the Cases Tab alongside FirstPoint. If you do not subscribe to FirstPoint you will see a new tab called “Cases”. You will find your New Cases Product/s under this tab.

If you currently log in to your cases products via Lawbook Online you will need to log in to them via Legal Online from tonight onwards. You can do this by selecting Legal Online in the subscriber login drop down on the Thomson Reuters Corporate site or by linking directly (see details below) to Legal Online.

If you deep link directly in to your cases products you will need to update your deep links and any favourites you have saved. Click here for a list of New Cases Deep Links. Simply locate your current deep link or favourite and replace the old URL with the new one listed in the document.

If you deep link from your intranet we advise that you forward this email on to your Intranet or IT Team as they will need to make these changes for you and your colleagues.

About New Cases

Along with new and enhanced functionality designed to improve the effectiveness of your case law research, you will be able to search all cases content (full-text cases and FirstPoint summaries) simultaneously from a single search form. We have also redesigned our hit lists to make them easier to use. Additional features will include deep-linking capability to a case record and saved searches.
