If you are searching for a judge, attorney, or law firm, an entity search retrieves documents containing the entity name in the document’s section pertinent to that kind of an entity.

For example, if you are searching for a judge whose name is William O. Smith, the documents containing "William O. Smith" in the Judges section of the document will be rated with higher relevance than documents containing the name elsewhere. This makes your results more relevant.

An entity search is faster and more targeted than the same search terms entered in the Lexis^® search box for these entities:

• Judge
• Attorney
• Law firm
• Company
