/24-7PressRelease/ - DENVER, CO, August 11, 2006 - LegalView.com, the Internet's premier destination for legal news and information, has relaunched with a completely updated website. Featuring a sleek new look and increased functionality, LegalView.com promises consumers everything legal - from news and views to information they can use.
The completely redesigned site features new functions such as informative news streams, timely legal blogs, and reliable articles on a variety of legal topics, from unsafe drugs to securities law. LegalView.com now connects readers to state-specific legal resources with its handy Legal Websites in Your State function, and features databases of legal verdicts, legal terms, and even a legal encyclopedia.
LegalView's new Legal Encyclopedia contains information about many general legal terms and subjects, such as employment discrimination, affirmative action, and even the Geneva Conventions, currently a particularly topical subject. It joins the Legal Dictionary, which defines literally hundreds of legal terms. Just what does Original Jurisdiction mean? What is inter alia? If your lawyer uses the term Stare certiorari, what does he mean? These and many other questions are answered in LegalView's legal dictionary.
The Legal Encyclopedia is just one of the latest additions; in the months to come LegalView will be growing, adding many different forms of law-related information, with the aim of helping people understand the law and the legal issues that affect them. As an example, LegalView has begun to incorporate information from Wikipedia, the world's largest encyclopedia; interested in civil rights claims? LegalView includes Wikipedia articles on the United States Commission on Civil Rights and the disability rights movement. Want to know more about MTBE? You'll find a Wikipedia article on Methyl tert-butyl ether. How about Tort law? You'll find articles on that, too.
Designed with functionality in mind, LegalView.com is more than a Web portal - readers will find themselves connected to reputable lawyers through the site's free case evaluation feature. Hosted by seven sponsoring law firms with successful backgrounds in today's hottest practice areas, LegalView.com places some of the legal field's best minds at the fingertips of users. Boasting landmark verdicts and distinguished track records, LegalView is backed by a powerful consortium of some of the nation's best firms.
