This is a pretty big milestone in terms of our overall expansion to cover all civil litigation in federal district court," Carla Rydholm, general manager and head of product at Lex Machina, told me during a briefing this week. "Now we have the ability to provide coverage of every commercially relevant case.
While analytics by practice area remain the primary focus of the platform, it now allows users to compare analytics across all federal cases, without having to select a case type, and then drill down into more granular data based on courts, judges, counsel, parties, and other filters.
In addition to tagging cases based on the 22 primary practice areas, Lex Machina has now added tagging for another five categories: admiralty/maritime, forfeiture/penalty, FOIA, immigration, and RICO.
With this latest expansion, it has added the remaining 15% of district court cases that did not fit under one of those major practice areas.
