Ben Eidelson I have tried it now, it's amazing!
Download this while it’s hot, in the words of Lawrence Solum. It’s a great tool.
Law folk who are Mac users—if you're not using Ben Eidelson's Case Viewer, you should be. It's a simple, intuitive app that helps you find the text of judicial opinions incredibly quickly. I'm finding it a great addition to my workflow. caseviewer.app
A student I didn't know stopped me outside daycare this morning to say they use & love Case Viewer. Somehow that never happens with my articles! If you're a law student/prof getting ready for the semester (and you use a Mac), check it out! Harvard Law School caseviewer.app
How do we live in a world where the best native legal research app on Windows, Mac, or iOS is Ben Eidelson's Case Viewer? No shade at all to that truly excellent product, but that's one guy doing a side gig. This is a multibillion dollar market!
If you use Case Viewer, enable the 'early channel' in the dropdown menu to try a new update (0.9.4) that adds informative tooltips to most links to cases & statutes (with more info to come someday—suggestions welcome)
If Case Viewer isn't working, download the latest update (0.9.6) from within the app & it should be fixed. (There's a server outage for @CaselawAccess, and a bug in Case Viewer's handling of that error was making all searches fail as a result.)
Case Viewer version 0.9.9 adds dark mode, support for Safari-style tabs, and support for @CourtListener as a data source (substituting for @CaselawAccess, which has sunset). Download at caseviewer.app!
