Stay within your
firm's Microsoft® SharePoint®
environment and gain access to the content and
functionality of lexis.com® resources
that your firm uses most-without directly going to the lexis.com site.
With LexisNexis® SharePoint Web Parts, ease of use can be the new reality for
law firms, with customizable Web parts created to gain access to the LexisNexis
resources you use most-ShepardizingTM a citation; ordering and receiving
one or many Shepard's® reports or full-text legal documents; tracking cases, finding
topical news articles and browsing treatises. Even gain access to CourtLink® Web parts to gain access to
CourtLink and Alert results.
It's never been simpler or more
secure to tap into lexis.com without actually signing in to the service.
You can choose how your users will get to the Web parts, choosing one of two
options:
- the almost-automatic SSS/SSO
method that doesn't require authentication, or
- the cookie method that involves
the ID and Password sign-in screen.
Either way, it's streamlined accessibility to your
firm's Web parts.
What's Available?
You can tailor your firm's intranet portal or
practice-area landing page with the Web parts that your firm wants readily
available. Your firm's users use the Web parts without entering lexis.com and
can preview content of a target database before starting a billable session.
There is no cost for SharePoint Web parts if the
content you've selected is included in your current LexisNexis subscription. No
research charges are incurred until lexis.com is actually used.
Your SharePoint administrator downloads the chosen
Web parts and, depending on preference or practice area, will configure common
properties of the Web parts, for example, Sign-On Type, Company Client IDs,
Client ID popup, Maximum Number of TOC Sources as links and more.
Once the SharePoint installer is run, your
SharePoint administrator can individually download the Web parts you want.
Presently, you can choose from:
- Get & Print-Order delivery of single or multiple
citation;
- Table of Contents (treatises)-Browse and search the table
of contents or the full text of these secondary sources. This Web part is
customizable;
- Shepard's® Citations Service-Retrieve Shepard's
reports and the full functionality of lexis.com;
- lexis.com General Search (customizable)-Search
pre-selected, customizable sources;
- CourtLink Alerts-Specify your criteria for a Litigant
and/or Nature of Suit alert and link to more details about the docket, party,
law firm/attorney or judge (see next page);
- CourtLink Track-State your criteria and view existing
dockets of interest. Link to the CourtLink docket from this Web part as well.
