Notice Information

Notice Title

Law 360 Access Agreement

Notice Description

3.2 The news service that Law 360 provides includes breaking news and in-depth analysis of news articles, which are not comparable to the news features that our current subscriptions provide in terms of speed and the detail provided. This is particularly the case in relation to the US news, which Press and Know-how has found gives unique insights unavailable on other services. Law 360 aims to deliver key developments fast with most events being covered within 24 hours, in their experience however the news has been published much faster than that, with key developments breaking first on Law 360.
