Environmental Law: Cases

Lexis Nexis Butterworths (LNB) includes primary and secondary legal materials from the UK, EU, USA and many other jurisdictions.

It has particularly good collections of UK cases and in particular includes The Law Reports and The All England Law Reports, as well as many specialist series of reports. It is also a good source of UK legislation as it includes all UK Acts and Statutory Instruments as they currently stand.

LNB is also an excellent source of US primary legal materials and includes a huge amount of legal commentary from the UK and the US.

Lexis content formerly provided via the Lexis Nexis Professional interface is now available via LNB which replaces Professional.
