Legal research part 1

Legal research is important. It turns up the authorities that support your arguments. Those authorities can give a judge the assurance that if she rules for you, she will be following the law.
But legal research takes time. The better you do it, the less time it will take, so the less it will cost your client. And the better you do it, the better the authorities you will find.
