Legal Research in Decline?

January 20, 2013 — After hearing about Google Flu Trends recently, we checked "legal research" in Google Trends. According to the graph below, Google searches for "legal research" have been steadily declining for several years. Why? Are people expressing less interest in legal research? We are not sure, but it is interesting to note.

If you have any hypothesis that may explain this decline, please share! Our email address is info@lawfirmsearchengine.com.
