Bridge the gap with legal solutions
for government from Thomson Reuters
Keeping the community safe. Ensuring a just, efficient court system. Being the best stewards of government resources. Succeeding at these complex challenges is how government and the community come together. But as government budgets continue to tighten, it becomes even more important for you to have the trusted answers you need to maximize effectiveness – and efficiency – in every way possible. That's where Thomson Reuters can help.
Thomson Reuters Westlaw can provide information on everything from requirements for managing an open public meeting to guiding you on a wide variety of community programs - for example, state-funded school lunches, housing, child care, and sustainability initiatives. Westlaw can also help you understand community issues such as zoning and ordinances so you can protect land without compromising rights, and parameters for public officials' use of social media.
One way is to better understand how public/private partnerships work, what legal issues must be considered, and how to expedite the process because those partnerships can be of great benefit to the community. Practical Law has resources that will make them easier to create and maintain as well as tools to help make important programs such as grant applications more efficient and more accurate.
Make certain that money and time aren't wasted. CLEAR can assist you with fraud investigations to ensure that programs in your community are effectively serving those who need them most. It can help you protect the most vulnerable in your community as well as protecting the community from those who would want to do the public harm, using real-time searches through comprehensive public records and proprietary databases.
