Bloomberg Law

Bloomberg Law is a legal research system integrating legal content (cases, statutes, regulations, and a citator service), along with company and market information and news. In addition to the full range of BNA content, Bloomberg Law also offers access to Federal and state court dockets and filings, and a host of transactional resources.

A traditional Bloomberg Terminal, a sophistical tool for comprehensive research in the corporate and financial services area is available in the area behind the Reference Desk.
