"Future-ready practitioners understand how innovative technology can enhance their practice," stated Brandi Osborne, Ward and Smith's Law Librarian. "Westlaw Next and Practical Law Complete provide this edge to our firm's attorneys, and our clients directly benefit."

Long an industry standard when it comes to legal research, Ward and Smith's attorneys already frequently use Westlaw to conduct research and gain insights into the changing nature of law. Practical Law from Thomson Reuters is a practitioner's toolkit featuring standard documents, checklists, practice notes, updates, how-to guides, and more arranged in an easy to navigate platform organized by practice section.

Utilizing this type of integrated technology keeps legal resources organized and accessible from anywhere – providing practitioners with the information tools necessary to provide the highest level of expertise to clients.
