FindLaw, a part of Thomson Reuters, is a pioneer and innovator in marketing solutions for law firms, online legal information and services for lawyers, businesses, and individuals.
Formally launched on Jan. 9, 1996, FindLaw.com soon offered a mix of cases, statutes, legal news, a lawyer directory, an online career center and community-oriented tools such as mailing lists and message boards, including the famous “Greedy Associates” which lives on as a popular blog. The website rapidly developed into the leading legal information site on the Internet.
Legal publishing powerhouse West recognized FindLaw.com as a powerful tool for reaching legal professionals and for connecting attorneys with people in need of legal representation. In January 2001, FindLaw and its 55 employees became part of West. The company enhanced the legal information portal while rapidly developing its law firm online marketing business and client development solutions. West was acquired by Thomson in 1996. Thomson in turn joined forces with Reuters, resulting in the multination corporation we know today, Thomson Reuters.
