Document Search

Search the Lawtrac Document Bank collection using the text boxes under Search Collection.

Type a word or collection of words most likely to be in the document.

  1. Select "And" or "Not" from the drop-down list to filter with or against the word in the second text box. Type a word into the search collection to bring up documents with the word in the title or in the text body.
    1. Additionally, an asterisk (*) can be used as a "wild card" to represent any number of unknown characters, including 0 (numeric zero). For example, a search for "Secur*" would find "secured" and "securities" among others. Searches are not case-sensitive.

  2. Click Search Collection to display the search results.

Important: All matter documents take on the security settings of the matter to which they are attached. You are only able to view documents in your work group(s) and any documents for matters to which you are assigned. Non-matter-related documents have no security settings and are available for all to view.
