New FindLaw for the Public Launches
FindLaw, a Thomson business and a provider of client development services for the legal profession, has launched a new version of its "FindLaw for the Public" Web site (http://public.findlaw.com/) with many new features, including a redesigned look-and-feel and state-specific legal content. It also offers users improved access to lawyers through searching the West Legal Directory (with one million lawyers listed) to find and research lawyers in their areas.The new user interface offers tab-based site navigation and expanded topic-specific navigation for more than 40 legal topics. Other new features include expanded content on legal topics, such as bankruptcy law and criminal law and procedure, as well as links to national and state crime-prevention resources. The new version offers expanded state content in popular legal consumer categories, including criminal law, DUI/DWI, divorce, and family law. This new content includes features the company says are not available on other Web sites, such as "Crimes A to Z," which provides definitions for more than 40 crimes and displays the relevant state law for each crime based on a user's ZIP code or metropolitan area. FindLaw for the Public also includes other state-specific resources, such as bail schedules and assistance for crime victims. Source: FindLaw
