Lawtel is a subscription-based online legal research tool that provides subscribers with access to a range of legal information. Used primarily by solicitors, barristers and legal researchers, it covers cases and judgments, legislation, articles and press cuttings, and online precedents. One of the most popular Lawtel services is Daily Updates. Subscribers choose from 100 subject areas to receive the latest news pertinent to their practice area. Lawtel provides same day reporting for the Supreme Court and overnight coverage of selected cases from the higher courts. == History == Lawtel was created in 1980 by a Liverpool solicitor, Graham Ross, and demonstrated at the second annual conference of the Society for Computers and Law, where he was a speaker. Subsequently that year he was joined by a retired barrister, Gerald Impey. Together they set up a Manx company 'Lawtel Limited', from which Ross resigned a year later. Impey stayed on in various roles until his death in November 1999. In 1994, Lawtel was acquired by Centaur Communications Ltd. In 2002, Lawtel was acquired by Sweet & Maxwell. Lawtel continues to remain a separate service within the Sweet & Maxwell portfolio, positioned as a companion service to Westlaw. Currently Lawtel has 90000 subscribers, ranging from sole practitioners to universities and corporations. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Lawtel」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
