Q. How is Law.com Quest different from other search engines?
Law.com Quest is just like the search engines you're used to, in that you start a search on Law.com Quest by simply typing a keyword or two into the search box. The difference is that instead of returning hundreds of thousands of results that you have to page through to find what you're looking for, or requiring you to construct elaborate Boolean queries, Law.com Quest starts with an index of relevant sites and lets you filter your results by category to help you quickly zero in on the information you need.
Q. What if I get too many results?
You can filter your search by source, type, and date by selecting from the list of categories you'll find on the left side of your results page. Too few results? Simply remove one or more of the filters you applied to expand your result set.
Q. What's the difference between the Law.com Network and the Legal Web?
By Legal Web, we mean a selection of hand-picked law firm websites and legal blogs, in addition to the content from award-winning ALM publications like the New York Law Journal, Legal Times, The Legal Intelligencer, Law Technology News and Corporate Counsel.

Q. Why should I use Law.com Quest and not just go to Google™?
Google™ searches the entire web returning a wide range of items that may not be relevant or from reliable sources. We believe you'll find value in our targeted list of sites specifically geared toward legal professionals, and we thank you for giving our tool a try.
Q. Will everything I find in my list of results be free to read or access?
It depends. Many results are either free to all or free to those who complete a brief registration form. Some of our premium content is only available to subscribers.

Chances are you already subscribe to one or more ALM Media publications, so we think you'll find plenty of results to help you get your work done.
