Seven state and local Bar associations have moved to offer their members access to the Fastcase case law research database as a free benefit of membership in their respective associations. This includes two state Bar Associations, as well as five of the six members of the Ohio Metropolitan Bar Association Consortium. They are:
State Bar Associations:
- South Carolina Bar Association
- State Bar of Montana
Ohio Metropolitan Bar Association Consortium:
- Akron Bar Association
- Columbus Bar Association
- Cleveland Metropolitan Bar Association
- Dayton Bar Association
- Toledo Bar Association
Carole Levitt's new book, Internet Legal Research on a Budget, contains chapters detailing how to use Fastcase effectively.
Lawyers in 48 states and the District of Columbia have access to free case law research as a member benefit via either Casemaker or Fastcase. Only California and Delaware do not offer such access.
