Find Case Law Faster Without Cutting Corners
Legal Research, Reimagined for the Modern Legal Professional
Legal research forms the foundation of effective advocacy, but traditional research methods can be time-consuming, overwhelming, and tedious. David AI’s new Legal Research Tool, built on top of its Boolean Query Generator, offers a smarter, faster path forward, allowing students, attorneys, and researchers to find relevant case law, statutes, and PACER documents without the hassle.
Powered in part by Free Law Project’s Court Listener and seamlessly integrated into David’s private research ecosystem , this tool gives you access to millions of court opinions and PACER documents at your fingertips.
With David AI, legal research isn’t just faster—it’s transformed.
How David AI’s Legal Research Tool Works

It’s a full research loop: Find → Validate → Draft. - oh my!
Why PACER Access Matters (and How David Simplifies It)
PACER (Public Access to Court Electronic Records) offers a vast repository of court filings, but navigating and accessing documents can often be cumbersome. With David’s Legal Research Tool, millions of federal court documents become searchable and downloadable, without requiring a PACER account login. Users can apply either natural language or Boolean search logic to pinpoint exactly what they need quickly, bypassing the traditional per-page charges typically associated with PACER downloads. Built on trusted open-source legal resources and protected by David’s secure infrastructure, this tool provides enterprise-grade research capabilities without the usual friction.
