A birthday present for Lord Halsbury: LexisNexis name an app in his honour

On the anniversary of Lord Halsbury’s birthday – he would have been 189 today – LexisNexis has renamed one of its smartphone apps as Halsbury’s Legal Terms.

The app, formerly known as LexisNexis Legal Terms, provides LexisLibrary subscribers with on-the-go access to key points of law. Covering a wide range of legal topics, customers can find the meaning of a legal term, the legislation where that term was defined and read the key cases about that definition. It also provides links to related terms.

  1. I wonder whether Lord Browne-Wilkinson, or Lord Wilberforce, or even the infamous Lord Denning will follow suit down the ages?

    I’m loving the way that the ancient is blended with the modern by Lexis though! ;-D

Where are all the consumer ABSs?

time is money

Cracking the non-PI consumer legal market could be the biggest prize yet. So why, asks Simon Goldhill of Legal Futures Associate Simon Goldhill Consultancy, is everyone looking the other way?
Law is big business. According to the latest government figures, the UK market generates over £26bn per annum. Recent analyses suggest that just under half of that comes from the business and commercial sector. Of the rest, £3.5bn relates to personal injury (PI) and £1.5bn to crime. That means that the non-PI consumer legal market in the UK is worth around £8bn per annum. This is equivalent to the entire 2012 turnover of the UK’s creative, arts and entertainment services industry.
