"CaseText Gets IT Done"
5/5
What do you like best about CoCounsel Legal?

I like the ease of use with CaseText. It allows for automatic citation searches from within CARA AI, the feature that allows you to review and check your citations is great. Downloading all cited cases from within a brief is also really helpful and saves me a bunch of time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CoCounsel Legal?

There is nothing I really dislike. CaseText seems to always be upping it's game to compete with the big players in this space. They offer great customer support and I really find the coverage to be improving all the time. Annotated statutes is a great recent addition. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering CoCounsel Legal:

CaseText offers a good research option for a great price. The feature set is robust and they are improving coverage and options all the time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is CoCounsel Legal solving and how is that benefiting you?

CARA AI really allows me to narrow my searches and gather relevant cases, it allows more time for writing and less time weeding through irrelevant cases. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"I’ve optimized my legal research with Casetext"
5/5
What do you like best about CoCounsel Legal?

Using Casetext, I am able to conduct thorough legal research on an intuitive, user-friendly platform, all at a low cost. Westlaw may also offer great resources on a user-friendly platform, but at a high cost. Lexis is also costly and its platform is difficult to navigate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CoCounsel Legal?

I really can’t think of anything I dislike. It would be great if it offered the secondary or supplemental resources offered by Westlaw or Lexis, but those resources are not essential to most legal research. Casetext is the best value legal research tool in terms of results, use, and cost. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering CoCounsel Legal:

You not only pay less for Casetext than for Westlaw or Lexis, but you get better results on an easier to use platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is CoCounsel Legal solving and how is that benefiting you?

Casetext has reduced the time I spend on legal research and the cost, while enabling me to produce more comprehensive research. It’s also great for doing quick legal research on the go—working in legislative affairs in the past there were times when a case was mentioned in a meeting or during legislative debate and I could quickly access it from my IPad and get what I needed quicker than searching on google or Lexis.

"Easy to use, good access to all authorities."
4.5/5
What do you like best about CoCounsel Legal?

You can select jurisdictions and whether you want to access case law, statutes, or regulations. You can get authority from all state and federal jurisdictions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CoCounsel Legal?

You must go to the state, and specify exactly what authorities you want to search from, whether it is case law, or statutory law. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is CoCounsel Legal solving and how is that benefiting you?

I had an adversary proceeding in a Chapter 7 bankruptcy case. The issue involved conversion of personal property from an estate in Ohio. Another issue involved the law of issue preclusion in Ohio. I was able to easily access Ohio statutes, and Ohio case law using Casetext. I was also easily able to research the federal procedural law in reference to adversary proceedings on Casetext. I wrote two briefs in support of a motion for summary judgment, and was able to obtain a favorable ruling using Casetext as a legal research tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"LOVE THIS PROGRAM !"
5/5
What do you like best about CoCounsel Legal?

I love how simple and easy it is to use this software. I'm a 1L student and we were provided with WESTLAW for free but it has so many features that can easily become overwhelming. I know when I come here I'm not going to get lost in all the features and I'm going to find what I need in a time-effective manner. The only thing I wish they had was a mobile app and a few secondary sources. other than that it's been great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CoCounsel Legal?

I wish it had a few secondary sources, not too many where I would get lost but a few to reference. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is CoCounsel Legal solving and how is that benefiting you?

I'm saving so much time! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Very user-friendly"
5/5
What do you like best about CoCounsel Legal?

cut/paste with citation and Parallel Cites feature Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CoCounsel Legal?

Parallel Cites is great - however, it needs to be updated to show when cases are non-published in their summaries. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is CoCounsel Legal solving and how is that benefiting you?

I can quickly resesarch relevant authority and the AI is getting better each day and knowing what I'm looking for in my rather niche area of law: civil rights for disabled children. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
