It’s Last Rites for Lexis.com, As LexisNexis Sets Date for Shutdown

By on December 23, 2016 in Law Firm Management

LexisNexis has begun notifying Lexis.com customers that it will be shutting down the legacy legal research service over the next 12 months and moving them to the newer Lexis Advance research platform, according to a post on Law Sites by Robert Ambrogi.

“It was five years ago this month that LexisNexis formally launched Lexis Advance as its next-generation research service,” writes Ambrogi. “Since then, the company has continued to build out and refine the newer platform, including rolling out a major redesign of it two years ago.”

Because many lawyers stayed with the older, familiar system, LexisNexis has been maintaining two separate systems with different architectures. Ambrogi writes that the company could substantially cut costs and gain efficiency by shutting down the older system.
