I would like to echo Elaine Dockens. LivEdgar is a really good deal. Our
SF attorneys use it all the time (they also used FreeEdgar). They are quite
responsible about putting in client info, and if they don't we can bug them
because we have the user name. VERY GOOD customer support - especially good
when neither you nor the attorney REALLY knows what he/she is looking for.
Flat rate contracts and enterprise licenses are also possible. Has
notification also.

Hi Rochelle - My attorneys use GSI - Global Securities Information, Inc.
800-669-1154. The costs are reasonable. Most of them conduct their own
searches and I do the searches for the partners that don't want to do
computer research. Everyone is happy with the product and the service.
There is a "live filing" section which I think is updated every 15 minutes
while you are on line. There are many bells and whistles for those who want
them or like custom searches, but I stick to the very basic retrieval of
10-K's, proxy statements and merger/acquisition notices. For the things I
need there is a very short learning curve, which I appreciate. Hope this
helps.

Since this is no longer "free" and the "professional" subscription rate
seems to be more than just a bit steep, I'd like to know what other firms
are doing for this material, if it's to be accessed directly by the
attorneys.
