Law Dictionary in Westlaw or Lexis-Nexis?/in the internet?
Is there a law dictionary function included in either Westlaw or Lexis-Nexis?
Alternatively, and I guess additionally, what's the best free online law dictionary?

Unsure about Lexis but I'm pretty certain Westlaw has one.

Cool thanks. I really don't want to buy a law dictionary...not only is it expensive, but it's a lot easier to search for words on some electronic device.Cardboardbox wrote:Unsure about Lexis but I'm pretty certain Westlaw has one.

A follow-up question: Any tips on teaching yourself legal jargon? I look up words I'm unfamiliar with when I see them, but any tips on committing it to memory?
