New Online Benefits

Easy to Use: Thomson's new legal online service looks and operates just like FirstPoint. So even new users can get great results with little or no training. Products are presented in a consistent format and are searchable from a single search form.

More Up to Date: Central to our proposition is the way we publish legislation. We've created a new legislation publishing team and processes to give you the greatest confidence in the currency of the legislative material you're using. We aim to provide Law-in-Force consolidations of all the legislation published in our commentaries, with detailed amendment histories at both a section and Act level.

Transparent Currency Information: Each piece of legislation has a clear and concise currency statement. We'll tell you:

  1. the status of our latest consolidation (law-in-force or amendments pending)
  2. the latest amending provisions taken in to the consolidation
  3. if there are amendments pending, we'll tell you what those are and when they came in to force
  4. if there are amendments scheduled to come in to force at some future date, we'll tell you that too.

Better Integration: References to case law are now linked to FirstPoint, as well as the full-text Thomson law report / judgment, and the PDF version of the report in it's original as-published form. Legislation links take you to full text legislation as published in your new online commentaries (even where published in a separate product). Links to free third-party content are also available.

Accessibility: If you use an intranet to access your legal online research services or perhaps bookmark content for subsequent access, Thomson's new legal online enhancements offer a range of new options. Deep-links can be created to content at various levels to a search form, to a document, or to a saved search.
