FAQ

Does Alexi always provide cases?

Not always. Alexi pulls cases when your question is legal in nature and case law is relevant. For general drafting, brainstorming or business questions, there may not be cited authorities.
‍

Can I click directly into the case?

Yes. Referenced cases are hyperlinked so you can view summaries or passages directly alongside Alexi’s reasoning.
‍

Are these cases always binding?

Alexi surfaces the most relevant authorities based on a number of factors including level of court, similarity to your fact pattern or context, relevance to the legal issues, frequency of citation by other cases, and a variety of other factors. Some of these factors may outweigh the others when determining relevance. Always apply professional judgment when relying on them.

What if I need more depth on a specific case?

To explore a specific case in more detail, you can refer to it within your follow-up question. For example, you can ask, In the Jones decision, what were the facts of the case and how are they potentially distinguishable from my own case?
