Use tailored search fields and intuitive search term connectors for maximum enhancement of search results

You control how broad or narrow the scope of your research. From case law to court rules, the American Encyclopedia of Law offers specific search fields for each area of legal information. Coupled with intuitive connectors, our search engine efficiently extracts the relevant documents for your search. Connectors allow you to combine two or more keywords in a search expression. Depending on their use, connectors may help focus or expand search results.

Other helpful searching features include our inclusion of variant forms of search terms, and the use of expanders, wildcards, and a thesaurus.

All of the searching capabilities are included in the other legal encyclopedias.
