PRECEDENT AGREEMENT SEARCH ENHANCEMENTS

A search for sample agreements is perhaps the most common corporate legal research request. This task is now even easier to complete, thanks to a host of new enhancements to our EDGAR Precedent Agreements search, including:

  • Start your agreements search within one of 13 different practice areas
  • Search by stock exchange, auditor, or index membership (S&P 500, for example)
  • New and improved Table of Contents and document formatting

If you're interested in finding out more about EDGAR Precedent Agreements, please email experts-on-call@tr.com, contact your Westlaw representative or call 800-669-1154.

And, of course, alternative sources for locating them.
