What We Do

Many things are claimed to be unprecedented. Few have been verified. We verify. Our research team reviews the historical, legal, and practical record across every relevant jurisdiction and discipline and issues a formal determination: No Precedent Confirmed, or Precedent Found (with citation).

We have issued 1,847 Certificates of No Precedent. In 23 cases, we found precedent the client did not know existed. We issued those clients a Precedent Found Report instead. They were not happy. They were, however, informed.

We consider being informed more valuable than being happy. We make this clear upfront.
