Get the judgments that support your point, in the court's own words
Finding the authority for a point means searching a law-reports site, opening one judgment after another, reading for the paragraph that actually decides it and noting the citation. It takes a day, and a case that looks close can hold the opposite. Falef does that reading while you get on with other work. It quotes the passage word for word, shows every website it opened, and says when it found nothing.
Pause or stop any time.
Ask it things like
- “On Kenya Law (https://kenyalaw.org/judgments/), find Court of Appeal and Supreme Court decisions since 2015 holding that an employer must give an employee a hearing before dismissing them under section 41 of the Employment Act. For each, give me the case name, citation, court and date, the paragraph that states the holding in quotation marks exactly as the judgment has it, and the link. If you can't find one, say so.”
- “On Kenya Law (https://kenyalaw.org/judgments/), find High Court decisions since 2018 that apply the test for an interim injunction. I need decisions that apply the test and grant or refuse the order, not ones that only mention it. Quote the sentence that states the test, with the case name, citation and link.”
- “Open this judgment: [paste its Kenya Law link]. Quote the paragraphs that deal with costs, with their paragraph numbers, and tell me what the court ordered.”
What Falef does
You watch each of these happen, in plain words, as it happens.
- Opens the law-reports site you name, or finds it by searching.
- Searches it the way you would, by court, year and wording, and opens the judgments that look close.
- Reads each one for the passage that decides your point and checks which way it goes.
- Copies that passage word for word with the case name, citation, court, date and link.
What you get
For each judgment, the case name, citation, court and date, the decisive passage quoted exactly, and a link to the full text, with a screenshot of the page it came from. Under the answer, a list of every website it opened.
Worth double-checking
- Name the website and paste its address. Falef then starts on that site and stays there, and doesn't pick one by searching, which is how an answer drifts to another country's law.
- A close case can go the other way. Say what the court must have decided and for whom, such as "the employee succeeded". A vague ask brings back a nearby case.
- Check each quotation and citation against the full judgment before you file anything. The screenshot shows what Falef read; it does not replace your reading.
- "None found" means nothing turned up on the pages it searched. Try another wording or court before you conclude that no authority exists.
- Reports that need a subscription or a login can't be read. Falef never signs in.
- Ask about the law, not the client. Leave out names and privileged details, because Falef's staff may read a task to help.
- This is research help, not legal advice.
