EVERYONE HAS A NEED
FOR NEWS
News is about more than current awareness. It’s valuable
information. Turn to Westlaw Canada for this rich source
of content.
• An “informal discovery tool” – For litigation or
general fact finding, news can reveal more profound
information than formal discovery since it occurs
under your opponent’s radar; they may make
incriminating statements in the media at a time when
they aren’t anticipating litigation
• Evaluating parties and opponents – Find and
contact parties, monitor previous legal histories
• Due diligence tool in business transactions –
Determine if there are skeletons in the closet before
the deal closes
• Identify trends that may become legal issues –
Monitor the right to privacy, corporate scandals
and governance litigation, the impact to the global
economy, mergers and acquisitions, and more
• Identify potential clients and pitching business
– Tap a goldmine of information about people,
companies and industries, and their legal landscape
• Advising current clients – Alert current clients
to windows of opportunity, pitfalls to avoid, and
competitive developments
• Competitive intelligence – Research opposing
counsel or law firms; find out what your competition
is up to
