Another excellent tool/resource that I use is LexisNexis. Their website
provides access to federal and state court cases, the CFR, administrative
codes to all 50 states as well as laws to a number of countries. My senior
records analyst, a paralegal by trade, swears by it.
LexisNexis is not free, but if your legal department already has a
subscription, you might be able to establish an extra account at a
reasonable price. Definitely worth the price, especially if your company
has operations in a number of states and/or in other countries.
