I've been asked to help find out who is responsible for cite-checking at
larger law firms. Who has primary responsibility at your firm?
Paralegals? Librarians? Associates? We are an 850+ attorney firm with
a half dozen offices, and we would like to know what other larger and/or
multi-office firms are doing.
Please include the cite checking level of responsibility; for example:
1) Westcheck, checkcite -- just checking formats & checking for "good
law," shepards, keycite
2) Interpretation -- flagging the results/report for problems
3) Checking/Verifying bluebook format including validity, quote checking
and context of quote.
Please respond to me directly, and I will be happy to summarize results
for the list.
