Out of Many, One

Today, we celebrate Law Day, a national observance in the United States established to reflect on the role of law and its importance in society. This year's American Bar Association theme, "The Constitution's Promise: Out of Many, One," reminds the legal community of our responsibility to one another and encourages us to bridge our differences to come together as a united nation.

Benjamin Franklin, John Adams, and Thomas Jefferson wrote e pluribus unum (out of many, one) looking ahead to future generations, but couldn’t have anticipated that artificial intelligence and modern technology would become part of the "many" contributing to the legal profession. Yet the principle remains the same–we are stronger together, with each unique contribution serving the common good.

At vLex, we embody this spirit by ensuring every lawyer has access to premium legal research tools and AI-powered legal workflows, regardless of the size of their firm or the prestige of their alma mater. By empowering all legal professionals with cutting-edge technology, we’re helping create a more equal and just legal system that serves us all.

Raising the Bar Through Partnerships

vLex has partnered with bar associations across the country to provide lawyers with free access to our premium research platform. These partnerships exemplify our commitment to raising the bar for the entire legal community.

Our legal database is the world's largest global law library, with over one billion searchable documents from more than 100 countries. We’re helping ensure that the quality of legal representation doesn't depend on the size of a firm's research budget by making this vast collection available to lawyers across the country.

Through these partnerships, we're breaking down barriers and democratizing access to legal information–truly embodying the "out of many, one" principle that defines this year's Law Day theme.

Leaving No Lawyer Behind With Technology Training

The rapid advancement of AI in the legal field presents both opportunities and challenges. While offering tremendous potential to enhance legal practice, new technology also risks creating a divide between those who know how to use it effectively and those who do not.

vLex is committed to leaving no lawyer behind in this technological revolution. We offer comprehensive webinars, demos, technical support, and ongoing customer success support to help lawyers integrate Vincent AI into their practice. Our free trials of Vincent AI enable attorneys to experience firsthand how AI can transform their workflows before making a financial commitment.

By providing these educational resources, we're empowering all members of the legal community to benefit from technological advancements, regardless of their technical background.

Leveling the Playing Field

Perhaps our most significant contribution to the "out of many, one" ideal is how vLex helps small law firms compete in an increasingly competitive legal marketplace. Vincent AI acts as an army of associates, providing small practices with the research power typically available only to large firms with substantial resources.

For solo practitioners and small firms, Vincent delivers AI intelligence that understands the law, transforming research, litigation, and transactions through delivering reliable insights backed by the world's most comprehensive legal database.

Through our Docket Alarm integration into Vincent AI, small firms can leverage invaluable intelligence on judges, opposing counsel, and opposing parties–information that larger firms traditionally gather through internal networks. With Vincent, attorneys can build targeted profiles of judges, lawyers, law firms, and clients based on their litigation history, gaining strategic intelligence that was previously available only to those with extensive resources.

We're All In This Together

As we celebrate Law Day 2025, vLex reaffirms our commitment to the common good of the legal community. Through our partnerships with Bar Associations, comprehensive training programs, and technology that creates equal opportunities for firms of all sizes, we're helping create a legal system where excellence doesn't depend on size or resources.

The motto e pluribus unum reminds us that despite our differences, the United States is one nation united under the rule of law. At vLex, we're proud to support this vision by providing tools that empower all legal professionals to serve their clients with excellence.

In a world where technology could easily widen existing gaps, we're dedicated to ensuring it instead brings us together, creating a stronger, more united legal community.
