CourtListener 🦋

Free Law Project is a pioneering nonprofit organization established in 2010, dedicated to enhancing the legal ecosystem through innovative use of technology and data. As a 501(c)(3) entity, its mission is to provide equitable access to legal materials and foster an open research environment. The organization is known for its significant projects, including CourtListener, a comprehensive and searchable archive of court data encompassing opinions, oral arguments, and judicial financial records. Additionally, the RECAP Suite offers tools to democratize access to federal court data, while Bots.law features automated services that assist attorneys and the public in tracking court cases.

Beyond these tools, Free Law Project advocates for policy changes to improve transparency and accessibility, achieving notable milestones like the online availability of oral argument audio and the creation of a government database of judicial financial disclosures. Collectively, these initiatives provide critical resources for individuals and organizations seeking to engage with and improve the American legal system.
