Improving Legal Research with AI-Driven Precision
Legal research demands accuracy and speed. The GenAI skill Claims Explorer, available on Westlaw Precision with CoCounsel, helps legal professionals quickly identify relevant claims. This tool supports attorneys in building strong legal strategies by ensuring they consider all applicable facts and claims early in their cases.
Built on a Foundation of Legal Technology and Innovation
Identifying all relevant claims in a case is crucial but often time-consuming. Typically, attorneys spend hours analyzing legal documents, and late discovery of additional claims can weaken a case or reduce potential compensation.
Claims Explorer leverages decades of expertise in legal technology and AI to automate claims identification. Users can filter searches by jurisdiction, cause of action, or legal strategy. This not only speeds up the process but also uncovers less obvious or strategically valuable claims that could be relevant if more facts emerge.
Enhanced by Legal Expertise
The accuracy of Claims Explorer is strengthened by contributions from the Westlaw editorial team. Hundreds of experienced attorney editors curate and maintain a comprehensive claims taxonomy. Their work includes tagging legal issues, recognizing fact patterns, and categorizing case outcomes to keep results authoritative and current.
This collaboration reduces AI errors such as hallucinations or misleading suggestions, making Claims Explorer a dependable tool for legal research.
