In major legal-industry news, LexisNexis Legal & Professional today announced its acquisition of Ravel Law, the legal research, analytics and visualization platform that empowers users to contextualize and interpret large amounts of legal information to uncover valuable insights.

Notably, the acquisition moves LexisNexis further in a direction it has been heading for a few years now of expanding its suite of legal analytics products. In addition to its own analytics products, LexisNexis MedMal Navigator and LexisNexis Verdict & Settlement Analyzer, LexisNexis last year acquired Intelligize and Lex Machina.

“This acquisition builds on investments we’ve been making to deliver deeper analysis for today’s lawyer,” Pfeifer said. “Our vision is to create the data-driven lawyer of the future. Daniel and I deeply share that same passion and deeply share that interest in driving new insights out of technology that were not previously available.”
