Growing its topic-focused legal app offerings, Lex Machina announced the release of two apps—the Courts and Judges Comparator and the Law Firm Comparator—on its analytics platform to better assist attorneys in quickly finding and leveraging comparative data.
Owen Byrd, Lex Machina’s general counsel and chief evangelist, noted the impetus behind launching the apps was attorney demand for a streamlined, easy-to-use interface for interpreting court and law firm’s data. “When they are comparing a number of different entities or people they don’t want to have to open a different tab for each one, they want it all rolled up together,” he said. “Lawyers just want a light switch, they don’t want the whole power plant.”
