The only one of its kind in South Africa, Legal Citator is designed to analyse the precedential value of cases you're researching to reduce your research time dramatically. It canvasses five series of case law and has over 90 000 interlinked cases in constant, dynamic, analysis, generating a Case Analysis report on each.
