It is amazingly useful and provides relevant case law re entered search terms. It will sort the cases by date, relevance, etc. I am very happy to have come across this helpful app!!
What an awesome app. I thought just got new phone and it won't let me in? Tells me to login in? Not sure what going on. I hope someone at fastcase read this and helps..this app has help me get through some rough legal issues..love it just wish I could use it again
Absolute GARBAGE. You can't print, save or email. The cases haven't been updated since 2013. Useless trash.
I am enjoying the amount of searchable information available in this application. I have attended a few webinars regarding the upgrade to Fastcase 7 in which have been awesome. Thank you to the developers and the team hosting the webinars 👍😊
Absolutely the most useful research app I have found for all legal issues!
Has zero case law for my state. Regardless of how broad my search terms, it will simply say nothing could be found.
It is not free unless you are a member of a voluntary bar association which is more expensive than the subscription is.
Thank you, Fastcase" Your App is very inspiring for kindle readers. Wow" just reading a few cases, I broke to realize with reality about where's society's has gone wrong. Peoples Of America, needs to know the truth, n see reality not made up film's all the $ spent on shows should be spent towards reaching out to society Outreach for Help* in need. #Do u KNW Ur Nebor !...... See ur -$self ... ( view with caution) Great App I love it... 🌺Isabel🍵
Made for older devices. Needs an update. Said to contact dev.
It's a wonderful tool. Easy to use.
Woooooot Wooooot I love this !!! It's amazingly fun & forever once I start
SSL problem like other reviews. Can't install.
Love it tremendously! Been a blessing for a Pro Se Plaintiff!!
Best application I have used for pertinent information regarding legal matters.
This app is gantastic. Everyone should have it
App refuses to load.
Best app ever
Sooooo incredibly helpful, finding caselaw in the decades of information available is a part of legal research that could prevent anyone from entering the legal profession if it weren't for the benefits and assistance of fastcase and others like it. I love the get down to it search format and the read aloud option is great making this practical to research anywhere. ....... Thank you so much for the gift of a free app for those with little means and big aspirations to make a difference where there may not have been without this gift, it seems like a small thing but its more valuable than you could ever know. Thanks for providing it and providing it with great functionality to boot.
Downloaded the app. I tried to register. It only requested contact info and password. Then I got an error message saying that I didn't enter credit card info. The app didn't ask for the information and there wasn't a place to enter it.
I get an SSL handshake exception message when I try to open the app, so I can't even launch it. No choice but to uninstall it.
for a freebee, it's damn good. just try some different search phrases and you'll find cases that are helpful to your circumstance.
Installed -and receiving multiple payment options errors when no payment option is required. Error messages are unrefrenced and inapplicable. I wish this worked. Couldn't find a customer service email to request advice.
Installed but giving multiple payment option errors. Please advise. Would like to use this app.
Perfect for quick access to cases and statutes. Keep in mind that fastcase isn't lexis or west. There is no Shepard.
Unfortunately this app is missing the key components that make it valuable. The save, search and exit features are missing g and when I contacted the developer there was no response. I am very disappointed
Can't even get past registration It keeps saying payment method must be selected.. Yet it is just asking for name email & company Uninstall
Great to have at hand especially when not able to access Westlaw remotely.
Pros: Great app with tons of knowledge. Cons: Registration can be troublesome and customer service isn't the greatest. I would give 5 stars if it wasn't for those two issues.
Fastcase was more than I could have asked for. The app is absolutely free, which was unexpected, but great . The online site has even more tools, etc. Their support response is quick, and knowledgeable. Every legal research app I have tried, either cost a ridiculous amount of money, or doesn't give any real information , cases, or even relevant subjects. Fastcase continues to do all of this, and more. I gave come to rely on Fastcase, and uit hasn't let me down yet. I recommend this app to all.
