Meet our newest team member, Bad Law Bot! � Fastcase. I get questions in presentations about the quality of free legal research online. Florida and other states provide their members with free access to the databases of FastCase, and Google Scholar provides free access to cases nationwide. Google's recent introduction of a citator feature makes Shepard's citator obsolete. The only thing required with Google is that the user "read" the summaries and cases. Which, by the way, if what you should be doing anyway. But, for those of you who are addicted to the Shepard's system of coding reversed or modified case law, FastCase now introduces Bad Law Bot, which will red flag negative treatment or reversals. Your bar dues already pay for FastCase in Florida, and other states. Why are you paying for other legal research services?
