There are no guaranteed outcomes in litigation and motion practice. When a lawyer brings a client’s case before a judge, the results can be unpredictable. To turn an unpredictable result into a calculated risk, lawyers do laborious research to know how and why a judge ruled on previous motions. That work is what Context on Lexis Advance offers: insight into how judges think and rule; in minutes not hours and days.

In November 2018, LexisNexis Legal & Professional launched Context as a component of Lexis Analytics Suite to help attorneys better prepare briefs and argue motions in federal court. Using technology acquired in June 2017 from Ravel, a provider of legal research, analytics, and visualization software, Context analyzes text in court documents and case citations to output language federal judges use most often to decide motions. Language and citation analytics of case law is not limited to motion practice. For example, Context also helps lawyers challenge expert witness testimony.
