This class is designed to give students a greater understanding of legal and law-related research. Building upon skills and resources covered in Legal Research & Writing I & II, the class will demonstrate advanced research techniques using a wide variety of research resources in their multiple formats – print, Westlaw, LexisNexis, and the Internet. The course will specifically cover complex sources like legislative history, administrative materials, and specialized sources that are initially introduced in Legal Research & Writing II. The class will also demonstrate how legal and law-related resources, in their various formats, can be effectively and efficiently integrated into one overall research strategy. The class will require an in-depth research paper in which students demonstrate their ability to conduct this integrated research in the completion of a complex research project.
