• vLex — Particularly strong for cross-jurisdictional research, with large international coverage and AI-assisted search.
• HeinOnline — Excellent for legal history, law reviews, journals, treaties, and international materials; highly trusted for citations in secondary sources.
• Fastcase — Useful for broad case law and statute search, often available through bar associations and law libraries.
