Westlaw and Lexis provide powerful legal research tools used by judges, lawyers and students all across the country. A new surprisingly powerful tool is Google Scholar.

A recent vignette related to me by a law school professor made me think that Google Scholar may be able to beat Westlaw and Lexis at their own game.
