Lexis+ AI in practice
Real workflows from practitioners across UK firms — research, advisory and drafting.
Property Litigation
Emergency advice, backed by authority
A barrister received a frantic call from a solicitor acting for a commercial landlord who had repossessed a property. Bailiffs arrived claiming access rights via a utility warrant tied to a previous tenant.
Lexis+ AI surfaced cited authority and practical guidance in minutes, letting the barrister respond on the call with verifiable references.
“I had the answer before the bailiffs had finished arguing on the doorstep.”
Commercial Contracts
Drafting a clause with full context
A mid-level associate needed to confirm that a post-termination confidentiality clause would survive the end of a settlement agreement.
The AI returned a cited case-law summary, a Practical Guidance drafting note and a linked precedent clause — all in one view.
“I didn't just get an answer. I got context, guidance, precedent wording and legal commentary all in one view.”
Tax
Instant prep before a client call
A tax adviser preparing for a client meeting on multiple dwellings relief asked: 'What's the latest case law on MDR in the past 6 months?'
Returned the most recent First-Tier Tribunal ruling, its status on appeal and similar pending cases — all sources cited, linked and open for validation.
“I walked into that meeting better informed than anyone else at the table — in under 10 minutes.”
Disputes & Litigation
Reducing anxiety for junior lawyers
A junior solicitor used Lexis+ AI to quietly check legal points against Lexis-sourced content instead of waiting to ask a partner.
Authority-backed verification became a learning tool — confidence grew without compromising accuracy.
“I used to panic about asking something I should know. Now I check it privately, get it right and learn faster.”

- Does Lexis+ AI provide real citations?
- Every answer is grounded in LexisNexis content with linkable citations to legislation, case law and commentary — including the All England Law Reports, ICLR decisions, Halsbury's Laws of England, Civil Court Practice (the Red Book) and EF&P / Atkin's precedents — so you can trace and verify each statement.
- How does it differ from generic AI tools?
- Lexis+ AI is retrieval-first, generation-second: it interprets the legal task, searches trusted UK legal sources, re-ranks results with legal-specific logic, validates every citation and only then generates a response. The language matches UK practice, the content is from a trusted legal provider, and the answers are auditable rather than improvised.

- Practical guidance is written by legal experts across 42 practice areas, with primary law, secondary commentary, encyclopedic works and precedents available across every major area of UK practice.
