The service Eligibility Accounts Acceptable use Not legal advice Sources & citations Intellectual property Your content Beta Liability Termination Governing law Contact

1. The service

LexLaw provides software that helps legal professionals search Australian legislation, case law and commentary, organise matters, and produce draft material grounded in cited sources. We may add, change or remove features at any time.

2. Eligibility

LexLaw is intended for use by legal professionals and others working with Australian legal material in a professional capacity. You must be at least 18 years old and able to form a binding contract. If you use LexLaw on behalf of an organisation, you confirm you are authorised to bind that organisation to these Terms.

3. Your account

You are responsible for the information you provide, for keeping your password secure, and for all activity that occurs under your account. Tell us promptly at security@lex-law.com.au if you believe your account has been compromised. We confirm new accounts by email; you must control the email address you register.

4. Acceptable use

You agree not to:

use LexLaw in breach of any law, court order, or professional or ethical obligation that applies to you;
attempt to access accounts, data or systems that are not yours, or probe, scan or test the security of the service without our written permission;
scrape, bulk-export, resell or redistribute the corpus or outputs except as the service expressly permits;
upload material you are not entitled to share, including privileged or confidential material you have no authority over; or
interfere with the integrity or performance of the service, including by introducing malicious code.

5. LexLaw is not legal advice

LexLaw is a research and drafting tool. It does not provide legal advice, and using it does not create a solicitor–client relationship between you and LexLaw. Outputs may be incomplete or wrong and must be checked by a qualified person before you rely on them. You remain professionally responsible for your own work and judgement.

6. Sources and citations

LexLaw links answers to legislation, cases and other materials. While we work to keep this corpus accurate and current, we do not warrant that any source is complete, up to date, or free of error, and legislation and case law change over time. Always verify a citation against the authoritative published version before relying on it.

7. Intellectual property

LexLaw and its software, design and trademarks are owned by LexLaw Pty Ltd or its licensors. We grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable right to use the service while these Terms are in force. Underlying legislation and case law remain subject to the rights of their respective owners and publishers.

8. Your content

You keep ownership of the matters, documents and queries you put into LexLaw ("Your Content"). You grant us a limited licence to host and process Your Content solely to operate and improve the service for you, as described in our Privacy Policy. We do not use Your Content to train publicly available AI models.

9. Beta and availability

Parts of LexLaw may be offered as a beta or preview, provided "as is" and subject to change or withdrawal. We aim for high availability but do not guarantee the service will be uninterrupted or error-free, and we may carry out maintenance from time to time.

10. Disclaimers and liability

Nothing in these Terms excludes rights you have under the Australian Consumer Law or other laws that cannot lawfully be excluded. Subject to that, the service is provided without warranties of any kind, and to the extent permitted by law our total liability arising out of or in connection with the service is limited to the amount you paid us (if any) for the service in the 12 months before the claim. We are not liable for indirect or consequential loss, or for loss arising from your reliance on outputs without independent verification.

11. Suspension and termination

You may stop using LexLaw at any time. We may suspend or terminate access if you breach these Terms or if we reasonably need to protect the service or other users. On termination, your right to use the service ends; sections that by their nature should survive (including intellectual property, disclaimers and liability) continue to apply.

12. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. If a change is material we will take reasonable steps to notify you, for example by email or an in-product notice. Continuing to use LexLaw after a change takes effect means you accept the updated Terms.

13. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of New South Wales, Australia, and you submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of New South Wales and the courts able to hear appeals from them.
