Australia's best citator

The JADE Citator

Find relevant legal material faster using the JADE Citator and Advanced Search filters.

Search for legal principle using keywords and phrases in combination with case law and legislation.

Use the JADE Citator to search for citations to a judgment, rather than the judgment itself.

Search at a paragraph level for case law and subsection level for legislation.
You're directed straight to the section of the document that you're looking for.
Get full citation reports to see the litigation history of a case, cases citing, cases cited by, and legislation cited by.

Use search filters to refine your search for faster results, share searches with your colleagues and save them in your My JADE library. Or create a JADE Alert to get real time updates about any judgments relating to your search.
