New York, NY (PRWEB) September 08, 2014 -- LexisNexis® Legal & Professional announced today that it has launched a new, intuitive user interface for its dynamic next-generation legal information service, Lexis Advance®, along with feature and functionality enhancements that will give users a more efficient and personalized research experience. Lexis Advance now features a significantly streamlined workflow across all steps of the research process and is responsively designed to offer the same experience across any device – computer, tablet or smartphone.
“Legal professionals work under enormous business and time pressures as they solve complex problems and mitigate risk for their clients, agencies and companies,” said Sean Fitzpatrick, managing director of the North American Research Solutions business at LexisNexis. “With its intuitive design and faster, more flexible navigation, Lexis Advance directly addresses their needs to quickly turn insights into action. They now have a powerful tool that not only helps them get to trusted results easily, but also allows them to pursue research in a way that best suits their workflow, search approach and location.”
The refreshed interface presents content and resources in a clean and accessible manner, while keeping popular features and functionality at users’ fingertips. Available resources can now be viewed instantly, without clicking on multiple screens, and additional insights and support tools are just one click away. The intuitive search capabilities have been streamlined, with sophisticated yet intuitive pre-filtering allowing users to narrow their search in fewer steps.
“The redesign of Lexis Advance is guided by the principle of power in simplicity, and based on extensive dialogue with customers,” said Marty Kilmer, vice president of Product Platforms at LexisNexis. “We’ve built a consistent, unified experience across devices that allows user to browse, navigate, read and scroll through their information more easily and quickly act on relevant insights.”

• Search suggestions – Most-utilized legal phrases and documents will automatically surface to expedite the search process, and sources are also suggested to search or browse associated Tables of Content
• Expanded content – including constitutional archives, administrative code archives, selected international titles, and more
