2 Topics Covered The Cost of Lexis & Westlaw Frugal Lexis and Westlaw Use Low cost databases Free Internet Sources Library Sources (briefly)
3 Flat Rate Plans Still care about cost effectiveness because: client charged Item maybe outside of plan Greater Usage = Greater Cost for Flat Rate Plan next year
4 Billing and the Recession Clients refusing to pay research costs 2011 survey, Law Technology News, 73% of firms surveyed charged clients for legal research, down from 97% in 2008.

17 Lexis Cost Recovery $60 for search (or as determined by firm) Plus cost of documents clicked on
18 How to Save Money on LexisAdvance and WestlawNext
19 BEFORE you search Ask librarian/managing partner about price plan. Use print or lower cost databases Plan your search before you go online Call the Reference Attorneys (also applies to Classic systems)
20 WestlawNext/LexisAdvance Strategy (if bill to client) Broad search and narrow down different ways (similar to classic) More importantly, limit NUMBER of documents clicked on
21 Folders & History Save document in folder WestlawNext and LexisAdvance Charged once. Then access free for one year. History WestlawNext - charges again after 2 am next day LexisAdvanced charges again after 24 hours, but if saved document to folder, access free via History for 90 days
22 Cost Effective WLNext/Lexis Advance Show the most detail in WLNext Lexis show best paragraph (default) or Lexis overview Sort by relevance Filter your results
23 Show Less or More Detail
24
25
26 More Searching hints Table of Contents free to browse and search on both services. Use Table of Contents instead of Book Browse on WLNext (OK to use Next Arrow on LexisAdvance) Alerts Use Find (applies to Classic systems too)
27
28 Keycite/Shepards Brief Check or LexisNexis for Microsoft Office to Shepardize; Westcheck to Keycite (saves for both classic and next generation systems)
29 Some additional Keycite hints for WestlawNext Case itself lists the most negative case Whether billed for keycite in addition to find depends on your plan Limit Citing References, use headnotes, depth of treatment keycite or kc: If need keycite, not text of case
30
31 Cost Effective Printing Westlaw decide per line or per document Print from browser Copy with Reference Get and Print, Find and Print Saves for both Classic and Next Generation Systems
32 Copy with reference
33 Reference Attorney Phone Nos LEXIS REF-ATTY ( ) (Westlaw) for law students (Westlaw)
34 Actual cost, next gen vs. classic Next generation systems: Flat rate, a charge for clicking on each document outside of plan plus document delivery for Westlaw. Classic: Flat rate. If go off plan, pay per search (transactional) or hourly. Charges do not depend on how many results clicked on.
35 Classic Lexis and Westlaw Select Transactional (charge per search) or Hourly. Can be additional cost for printing/ downloading Westlaw - additional communications charge
36 Figures are from a Local Law Firm, 2008 retail rates
37 Do Law Firms Charge Retail Rates? Lexis and Westlaw give discounts often firms not pay retail But Lexis/Westlaw costs include nonbillable items (eg. preparing CLE lectures) Firm wants to recover all Minority of firms charge retail (popular on west coast)
38 Ethics and Billing Unethical to bill more than paying Rule of Professional Conduct 1.5 ABA Formal Formal Opinion Pa. Ethics Op (2006) Illinois Bar Association Opinion 85-9 (1/17/86)
39 Billing Methods Full Retail Allocation contract cost allocated across all usage, billable and nonbillable. Partial costs spread over billable charges only Discount- Charge the client what actually pay for their research. Client defined discount rates based on usage for that client. Do not bill clients for research cost goes into overhead costs. May increase hourly fee.
40 Billing Methods Allocation and Discount =most popular. Easy to do with Lexis and WL Client defined rate becoming more popular
