When a client calls me with a task I've never done before, I know that the Practice Advisor is going to have something I can use to become immediately familiarized. Before, I'd have to do a simple Google search and cross my fingers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Downsides... my practice is somewhat niche (aviation) so there isn't a section dedicated to my practice. BUT my clients have standard business/corporate needs and there is always something available regarding corporate governance, business transactions, insurance needs, etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I do transaction and litigation work and find Practice Advisor to be an invaluable tool for my practice, especially for drafting documents that are new to me and educating me on new areas of law. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The only issue I have is that my state has certain nuances that are not always addressed with the templates, so I may have to do additional research to make sure I am complying with state law. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There was a lot of great content. I liked the search feature, and many of the documents and practice notes I reviewed were very informative and helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The sales rep dinked me around when trying to renew. He forgot all about me for 2 weeks, when he was supposed to have tried to get a deal approved, and then called me like we had never spoken before. When I reminded him of it, he kept telling me things like "that's going to come out of my pocket", which I can be sympathetic towards, however, he kept dropping the ball so much that my entire business with Lexis fell all the way out of his pocket anyway!! It was frustrating that I couldn't get another rep assigned to me, because he was terrible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Lexis Practice Advisor has a great resource of documents (forms) that transactional attorneys can use for reference. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Lexis Practice Advisor isn't great for highly niched projects. For example, if you're looking for artificial intelligence related clauses in contracts, you won't find anything like that here. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

This program is only helpful if you practice some sort of corporate law. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Covers every major subject area of the law with forms, documents, form contracts, or practice guide resources. Great for young attorneys starting out. Best feature is the “ask the author” feature where you can send questions to the creators of the entry you’re viewing and get a real answer Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
