Legal research with the citation behind every line
Ask in plain language. HAQQ reads the statutes, case law and regulations for your jurisdiction, alongside your own files, and answers with sources you can open and check.
What does HAQQ legal research actually do?
It turns a legal question into a structured, cited answer. HAQQ works out which jurisdiction governs, searches statutes, regulations, case law and your firm's own knowledge before it writes, and links each point to the provision it rests on. Where the law is unsettled, it says so instead of guessing.

From question to cited answer, in four steps
This is what happens between pressing send and reading the answer. Every step shows on screen, so you can see what HAQQ read.
- 1
State the issue the way you would to a colleague
No search syntax. Name the governing law, the instrument in play, the question and the jurisdiction, or let HAQQ infer the jurisdiction from the matter.
- Plain-language questions
- Jurisdiction inferred from the matter or set by you
- English, Arabic and French
- 2
Watch it search before it answers
HAQQ narrates its work: the legal libraries it searched, what it pulled from verified web sources, and what it checked for amendments and contradictions.
- Knowledge search across legal libraries
- Verified web sources, listed
- Conflicts flagged, not smoothed over
- 3
Read an answer you can verify in seconds
A short answer first, then the reasoning, with inline citations that open the statute, ruling or clause they rely on. If a point is unsettled, the answer says so.
- Inline citations to primary law
- A note where the law is unsettled
- Edge cases listed, not assumed away

Compare jurisdictions side by side
When a question crosses borders, HAQQ answers it under each law from that jurisdiction's own sources, so you see how the rules differ before you advise.
- One question, several jurisdictions
- Each answer from its own sources
- Built for civil law and Sharia-influenced systems
Built for research that has to be checked and signed
Primary law first
For covered countries HAQQ holds the named statutes and codes, and answers cite the provision they rely on.
Your own files in the same answer
Keep a matter in a project and ask across everything in it. HAQQ quotes the clause or ruling behind each line.
Jurisdiction-aware by default
Tell it you are in the DIFC, in Riyadh or in Cairo, and the reasoning, the forum and the citations change with it.
Recent amendments surfaced
Research draws on statutes, case law and gazettes, so you can check which version of a law an answer read.
Memos ready for the file
Get a structured memo with headings, cited authorities, analysis and a conclusion, and send it to the matter in eFirm.
Threads that remember
Come back to a question weeks later and the sources and reasoning that produced the first answer are still there.

Legal research questions
Which jurisdictions does HAQQ research cover?
HAQQ gives jurisdiction-aware answers across 200+ jurisdictions. For 33 countries, including the GCC, Egypt, Jordan, Lebanon, the UK and much of the EU and Latin America, it holds a maintained statute corpus and cites the provision directly. The coverage page lists each country.
Can I trust the citations?
Every citation links to the source so you can check it. HAQQ will not cite a national instrument it does not hold, and it flags a point as unsettled rather than resolving it for you.
Does it replace Westlaw or Lexis?
For covered jurisdictions it often covers the research on its own. Many firms use both, keeping a traditional database for deep US federal work.
Does it work in Arabic?
Yes. HAQQ researches and drafts in legal Arabic with full right-to-left support, alongside English and French for cross-border files.
Which plan includes legal research?
Starter adds legal databases filtered by jurisdiction. Pro and Business add your own files and eFirm data. Enterprise adds the full legal ontology with custom source connectors.
