Case Study: Norris Ward McKinnon

LexisNexis joined forces with NWM and supplied the team with the latest iPad tablets, loaded with ebooks and digital looseleaf publications, to test how technology can help.

Whitepaper: Re-thinking technology in the law firm

For legal firms technology is often perceived as something to which the individual or organisation must adapt. This whitepaper proposes an alternative view - that technology should be viewed as a trusted partner that can help adapt to the changes facing contemporary legal firms.

Off to court? Take a tablet - BRW Magazine

The NSW police force has equipped its 280 in-court prosecutors with Lexis Red. "It's a significant saving for a government legal department," Inspector Brendan Searson says. "It gives the prosecutors immediate access to critical resources that are up to date and is an efficient and sustainable solution."

NSW arms police prosecutors with iPads

The NSW Police Force has deployed 280 iPads equipped with a law resources app to its in-court police prosecutors. The tablet, and accompanying LexisNexis-built app, will replace 6.8kg of paper previously required in court for legal research and referencing.

Police force equips its prosecutors with iPads

A new legal research application, Lexis Red, is being used by each prosecutor in an attempt to streamline and improve the efficiency of the Australian state's justice system. Rather than head to court with heavy legal books on a daily basis, each iPad weighs roughly 600g - and the idea is an iPad will allow access to legal referencing material in a more effective manner.

NSW Police provides iPads to prosecutors

The NSW Police Force has issued all of its 280 in-court prosecutors with Apple iPads, to facilitate the use of a new legal research app, Lexis Red.
State prosecutors deal with 95 per cent of criminal and related prosecutions within local courts and provide around-the-clock legal advice to the police force.

The mobile lawyer - knowledge gathering in a connected world

What will the life of a lawyer look like in the future? How will the knowledge gathering & sharing process change? What impact will mobile technology and social media have on the legal profession? LexisNexis Pacific Head of Product Strategy, Frank McKenna, examines the opportunities ahead in 'The Mobile Lawyer: Knowledge Gathering in a Connected World', published in the May issue of the Law Society of South Australia Bulletin.

We will continue to provide maintenance and support (bug fixes) for the Windows 7 Lexis Red app version, but will cease the development of new features for this operating system. For optimum functionality, we recommend that our customers migrate to other operating systems (iPad iOS 8+, Android 4.4+, Windows 8.1+ and macOS 10.10 and 10.11).

From March 2018, version 3.13 of Lexis Red is the current version of the Lexis Red application.

How do I gain access to Lexis Red?

You can download the Lexis Red application for Windows or Mac desktops/laptops or a compatible tablet device (iPad iOS 8+, Android 4.4+, Windows 8.1+ and macOS 10.10 and 10.11) free of charge.

To download the application click here.

If you are running Windows 7 operating system on your device you will need to download a separate version of Lexis Red – version 3.2. This is available to download on the downloads page.

How do I download and install the application?

An Installation Guide may be found here.

Can the Lexis Red application be run by devices operating the Windows 7 operating system?

Lexis Red can be run on devices with a Windows 7 operating system. However, you will need to download a separate version of Lexis Red – version 3.2. This is available to download on the downloads page.

How do I use the features available on Lexis Red?

Some of the features available on Lexis Red include increasing and decreasing the font size, emailing or printing content, highlighting the text and adding and editing annotations.

For full information on how to use these features on different devices, as well as logging in and how to download and update publications, please see the Product user Guides which can be found here.

The User Guide will provide you with all the relevant information required to ensure you are able to effectively utilise the features available on Lexis Red™.

Note: Please ensure you are connected to the internet whilst downloading and obtaining updates to a publication.

What are the minimum operating system requirements for using Lexis Red?

These are the minimum operating system requirements for using Lexis Red 3.3:

Platform	Operating System	Minimum Screen Size	Device type

Android	4.4, 5.0 and 6.0	8 inch	Tablet
Windows	8.1+	12 inch	Tablet, laptop or desktop
macOS	10.10 and 10.11	N/A	Laptop or desktop

How do I transfer my titles from my current version of LexisNexis Red to the new version of Lexis Red?

We will have an automated transfer, or sync, of all non-expired content once a customer downloads the new Lexis Red app on any compatible device. This sync is an automated one-time only transfer of highlights and annotations to Lexis Red, and will include the transfer of your own work.

Note – No further transfers will occur beyond this one-time only automated sync. Therefore, once you have downloaded the new version of the application we recommend that you delete the previous version.

Note – The choice to transfer to the new version of Lexis Red is on a per user, not per customer, basis. Each user must download the new version of the application onto their own device.

I am unable to download the installation files and/or content. What should I do?

If you are unable to download the installation files, it could be due to a network firewall or network proxy blocking the download. Some networks prevent the download of software installation files to prevent the spread of malware. Please contact your IT department to verify if this is the reason for being unable to download the software.

If you require further assistance, please contact Customer Support at: customersupport@lexisnexis.co.nz

I'm having trouble installing the application. What do I do?

If you require assistance in installing the application, please contact Customer Support at: customersupport@lexisnexis.co.nz

How do I purchase content to be used with Lexis Red?

Please contact your Relationship Manager or Customer Support on 0800 800 986 or customersupport@lexisnexis.co.nz to purchase digitally-available content.

Do I require internet access to use the Lexis Red application?

The application is designed to be accessible both online and offline. However, you will need access to the internet for the following functions:

1. To download or upgrade the application

2. Initial login/download of the content purchased

3. For content updates

4. For annotations to be synced to our server (the Cloud) and between your devices

Can I sync between laptop and iPad versions?

Yes, you can sync between your devices.

Syncing between the devices will only occur if you are using the same version of the app. Thus, LexisNexis Red (the old version of the app) will not sync with Lexis Red (the new version of the app). Therefore, we recommend you download the new version of the application on any device you wish to use to access Lexis Red.

How can I give feedback on my Lexis Red experience?

We'd love to hear your thoughts regarding Lexis Red, or any of our new and existing LexisNexis solutions. Please contact us on 0800 800 986 or customersupport@lexisnexis.co.nz.

Please contact your Relationship Manager or Customer Support on customersupport@lexisnexis.co.nz or 0800 800 986.

How many users can borrow a title at any one time?

Each loan title can be accessed by one user at any given time. If your firm has multiple subscriptions to a title on Lexis Red, then multiple users will be able to borrow that title.

Can I use the Lexis Red Digital Library to access a title which my firm does not subscribe to?

Your firm must have a loan subscription account type and at least one Lexis Red subscription to the title you wish to borrow.

What if I want to borrow a title from my firm's library but someone else is using it?

You can request the title by clicking on the 'Request' button. This will send a notification to your firm’s Knowledge Manager. Your firm’s Knowledge Manager can then assign the title to you once it has been returned.

If I move from one law firm to another and use the same e-mail will I be able to keep my annotations?

Yes, you can. Your annotations are associated with your e-mail address, so provided you continue to use the same e-mail address you can continue to view and edit your annotations.

If you use a new e-mail address, then the annotations will not move to the new e-mail address and you will lose your annotations.
