Legal Research Center

What Corporate Counsel customers are saying

"I am repeatedly amazed at the diligence of LRC. They make sure all the bases are covered, using all available resources. They don't overlook anything. And one of the best aspects of LRC is that their researchers require very little direction."
- Barbara Sutherland, Northland Insurance Co., St. Paul, MN

"As Curtin Matheson prepared for the launch of a drug testing program, we solicited quotations for a multi-state survey from a number of our outside labor law firms in various jurisdictions in the United States. The cost of providing us this information was far in excess of the price at which LRC was able to make it available to us. And we are continuing to reap the benefit, by sharing in the cost recoupment."
- Linda Hansen, Curtin Matheson Scientific, Inc., Houston, TX

"LRC is the alternative to the $10,000 law firm brief."
- James Seifert, Toro, Minneapolis, MN

"We found the study was exactly what MCI's field offices and the legal department needed. This study was, and continues to be, invaluable to us."
- Patricia Young, MCI Communications Corp., Washington, D.C.

"LRC's research and writing service is a particularly valuable tool for the sole or small department practitioner with a goal of minimizing outside counsel costs but without the time to do as much research as he or she might wish. LRC's level of service and workproduct are both excellent."
- John H. Ogden, Werner & Pfleiderer Corporation, Ramsey, NJ

"A perfect job...very well done, very thorough, well-written, well-researched."
- Betsy Snider, Aetna Life & Casualty, Hartford, CT

"The Legal Research Center helped Republic Mortgage Insurance Company by conducting a 50-state review of laws about property ownership by foreigners. We later distributed the workproducts to all our field underwriting offices as part of a package on underwriting mortgage loans to aliens. We could not have done this ourselves, and the cost of a big name firm would have been prohibitive. I'll definitely use LRC again."
- John K. Motsinger, Republic Mortgage Insurance Co., Winston-Salem, NC

"When legal issues arise in our busy law department requiring analytical research and writing, we've frequently turned to LRC. LRC's commitment to excellence finds a very receptive audience here at HP. The quality of LRC's work and service is high and LRC's costs are lower than those of outside counsel."
- Patrick Barrett, Hewlett-Packard Company, Palo Alto, CA

"LRC's Multijurisdictional Surveys improve our access to critical information and make our decision-making process more efficient...and the surveys are prepared at hourly rates far below those of outside counsel. I strongly recommend LRC's Multijurisdictional Surveys."
- Kevin Roché, UnitedHealthcare Corporation, Minneapolis, MN

"LRC was selected as Heller's preferred provider of legal research, writing and knowledge management services because of its passion for excellence and its commitment to customer service, technological innovation and strategic partnering."
- Debra Snider, Former General Counsel, Heller Financial, Chicago, IL

"We have used LRC on cases which are in trial and they have done some wonderful overnight research and motion drafting on short notice. What our firms have learned is that they can be more cost effective if they use LRC. They realize that at the end of the day we will continue to retain those firms that are most cost effective."
- Robert H. Peahl, Former V.P., Litigation Services, Risk Enterprise Management, New York, NY

"I had extensive research done by counsel in California who could not find a case directly on point anywhere in the country on a big multi-party action. None of the other parties had turned up a case on point either. Then I called LRC and you found a case directly on point, the only one in the country. I've used LRC for legal, factual and jury verdict research and have been extremely pleased."
- Raymond Carroll, Claims Analyst, Risk Enterprise Management, New York, NY
