Expand the Boundaries of Your Research with LexisNexis® Total Search

As powerful as any on-point case, your firm’s culture and existing internal work product are fundamental to your competitive advantage and continued success. Think of the advantage it would give you to tap into these critical internal resources as easily as searching case law, news, or public records on the LexisNexis services.

LexisNexis Total Search expands the boundaries of the LexisNexis Total Research System by letting you easily combine searches on lexis.com with your firm’s most valuable asset–intellectual property and collective expertise that already resides within your firm. Find relevant knowledge, including existing pleadings, depositions, memos and motions written by in-firm experts, together with trusted information from LexisNexis–all through the familiar lexis.com user interface.

  • Increase productivity and service to your clients by sharing in the best practices, exceptional work product, and even successful writing styles of the whole firm

  • Reduce the volume of your unproductive e-mail exchanges seeking experience on specific matters

  • Eliminate costly duplication of work with other associates

  • Cut your training time because you’re already familiar with the easy-to-use lexis.com interface

  • Maintain security and confidentiality because access is only through the firm’s network within the firm’s firewall

You get all these benefits plus the broad perspective available only from the LexisNexis services, the world’s largest collection of news, business information and public records.

The LexisNexis Total Search application works essentially the same as LexisNexis at www.lexis.com. As you research a specific case, legal issue, or even a person on lexis.com®, you’re also automatically searching for on-point information within your firm’s internal documents based on your same search terms. You’ll notice that your search results are now displayed with two tabs. One displays results from LexisNexis and the other shows the results from your firm’s internal work product.

Simply click the tab for your internal results to display internal documents in familiar LexisNexis formats like Cite or KWIC™. Or click on one of the links for your firm’s internal documents that you’ll find embedded in LexisNexis documents.
 
The ease of use and expanded perspective of the LexisNexis® Total Research System integrated with your firm's work product. That's a powerful combination! That’s LexisNexis Total Search!

Find out if you firm has access to LexisNexis Total search and learn how you can take advantage of this powerful new research tool. If your firm doesn’t have access yet, you might suggest to the firm’s librarian or one of the partners that they investigate the possibilities. Your LexisNexis account executive will be happy to tell your firm more about how you can better harness the power of you’re the firm’s combined intellectual resources. Or visit www.lexisnexis.com/totalsearch to read more about the Total Search offerings.
