West Group used to sell StoreLaw. They also had a chance to acquire eCasebriefs distribution rights. They dropped StoreLaw and walked away from eCasebriefs. They couldn't sell StoreLaw nor support it. Students who bought it were not happy. We know why and soon so will you. They didn't want eCasebriefs because from what we can tell it never really sold any copies.

Storelaw feeds your anxieties.

Our initial take on this product was that products such as Storelaw feed your anxieties and give you every excuse in the world not to memorize the law. It reminds us of the salesperson who is always fiddling with her computer fixing and updating files instead of out selling product and getting results. No one likes to memorize and the need to do so produces anxieties. Students who spend their time organizing and making an outline are asking for it; we can almost virtually guarantee any such student who does that will be at the bottom of their class.

Here is why we are so Negative on Storelaw.

We went to Storelaw web site to purchase their product to evaluate it. We read all the verbiage and were impressed about the alleged level of customer service, capabilities of the product and their claims. In hindsight, we should have been worried that there is no one to talk to and no phone numbers.

After we downloaded and paid by registering on the web we needed help because a good deal of the information was extremely out of date. We wanted to call or contact Storelaw by email to resolve the problems. There was no phone number. There was no answer to any of our 14 emails over a three week period. This despite the fact of their bragging about customer service on their web site. We asked them for a refund 6 times over a two week period. We got zero replies.

We had to report the transaction to Visa to get a refund on the purchase price.

Don't waste your time with Storelaw. Even after we reported the transaction to Visa to get a refund, we never heard from nor received a reply of any type from the company. These comments have been up online for the past 5 years and we have emailed them to the company and have received no comments. The current price sells for we believe $60. DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY. Storelaw has no support, and is significantly overpriced for what you get. The content we saw in the product was obsolete. This product gets a BUYER BEWARE rating from us.

On a scale of 1 to 10 we give this product a ZERO!

If you insist on feeding your anxiety and want a product that helps you make a pretty outline get Microsoft One Note.

If you think making a pretty law outline is something important to do in law school and you want to be all organized you might want to find something better to do with life than wasting it in law school. No one in the world likes to memorize. With all the anxieties you already have don't let anything stand in your way of memorizing the law.

eCasebriefs is sold by Storelaw

As far as eCasebriefs sold by Storelaw; NEVER buy a digital content or data product you cannot see before you buy.

We purchased one title so you won't have to. The case briefs were marginal and far worse than Casenotes. They are sold by distributed pdf type books as stand alone products and also as add ons to Storelaw.

If you cannot try their casebriefs before you buy don't bother.

You have no idea about the quality of the casebriefs you are getting but we can tell you for sure that the contracts book we purchased was terrible. Before we bought we even asked them about the fact we could not see what we were buying. They sent us a brief by email. You would figure they would send an example of their best casebrief but the quality was much lower than Casenotes.

Don't waste your time as too much about this company is just plain creepy. We found an amazing set of documents about this company. It has very few sales with losses equal to 50% of sales. It is issuing press releases faster than French Revolutions. With all the mergers, dividends (they are losing money but issuing stock dividends), spin offs etc, it appears that they are a bit too busy making imaginary paper deals to produce good casebriefs work product.

As far as eCasebriefs we posted our first comments on the company on 8/26/2007 and immediately got 6 responses in two days. ALL OF THEM WERE BAD and all of them were not from lawstudents but professionals in the law book business.

We discovered that the product was originally sold by Harcourt Brace and they must have sold very few over the years because we never heard of them and they have never been in any bookstore that we could find.

eCasebriefs rates a buyer beware

The founder claims on the web that many consider him the founder of Digital Publishing that one is so absurd we have no comment. We even know some of the original founders at Adobe and Apple computer and they died laughing when we told them.

He claims to have seven employees that are alleged to work for the company. They have no phone numbers and no address that we could find. THAT IS A BUYER BE WARE OF THE HIGHEST MAGNITUDE.

If you can't talk with someone at the company do not buy. We know from our bookstore experience with online stores and Storelaw that those who don't have phones and no real people behind the company to answer them are a waste of time. NEVER BUY a digital product that you cannot inspect before you buy. Their return emails are form emails.

According to the founder they are going to be a company with $100's of millions in sales in a few years and that was 5 years ago. From $75k in sales and a loss of about $36K they fell just a little short.

On their website the company claims to be the best selling digital casebriefs since the 1990's. We find that highly incredible. We know the buyers at the four largest bookstore chains in the country and they never heard of them. BUYER BEWARE!!
