Westlaw International

The majority of Westlaw’s 40,000+ databases are international legal material with a small offering of local Australian content including case law and news. Legal Online remains the primary service for Thomson Reuters Australian legal content. As a result you will notice the Westlaw service has been renamed Westlaw International to better reflect that content focus.

New Features

We have also added some great new features, including:

• KeyCite Alert: automatically monitors the status of your cases, statutes, administrative decisions, and regulations and sends you updates when their KeyCite results change
• Find & Print: find and print multiple citations at once
• New Databases list: displays databases that have been added to Westlaw in the last 30 days
• Court Docs: combines briefs, pleadings, motions, memoranda, eforms, dockets, and expert testimony in one place, with powerful search enablers.

All functionality is subject to standard subscription based warnings. You will be warned or blocked (based on your settings) if the new functionality takes you outside of your current subscription.
