What customers are saying about ProView

"The e-book is great! I especially like the search function which can identify phrases quickly that I am looking for across the whole range of legislation.
The download onto the iPad was quick and efficient and I had no trouble with it. I take my iPad out into the field and I can use it easily at crime scenes etc. It’s definitely the way to go."

Legal publishers are embracing technology that lightens the load for lawyers
Going to court just got a whole lot easier with the introduction of eBooks to the legal profession.

Tablets to ease lawyers’ burden of proof
IT is a common sight in every law court: lawyers trundling suitcases stuffed with documents and pushing trolleys towering with folders of evidence and filings. But it may disappear into anachronism long before the wigs and robes, thanks to the iPad.
