Research tools built around Ghanaian law
Six tools that share one library. Start from a case, a section or a question and move between them without losing your place.
Judgment Library
Verified rulings of the superior courts, reaching back to colonial era decisions and forward to this month.
Read complete rulings of the Supreme Court, Court of Appeal and every High Court division. Each one carries our editors' headnote, the full panel, the lawyers who appeared and a linked list of the authorities it cites.
- Narrow results by bench, division, presiding judge, year or subject
- Numbered paragraphs ready to quote in your submissions
- Fresh unreported rulings posted soon after they are handed down
- Print ready PDF and Word exports stamped with the citation
Statute Book
Every Act, Decree and Legislative Instrument in its current form, with a time machine for earlier versions.
Our editors fold each amendment into the parent text, so you read one clean version of the law rather than piecing it together. Pick any past date to see exactly how a provision read at that moment.
- The 1992 Constitution with notes under every article
- Changed sections flagged where they sit
- Historical versions back to the day of enactment
- Subsidiary legislation attached to its parent Act
Research Desk
Put a legal question in everyday words and receive a reasoned answer drawn solely from Ghanaian sources, each point footnoted.
Research Desk works inside our library and never wanders onto the open web. Every answer shows its footnotes, opens the precise passage it relies on, and warns you when the courts have not yet settled a point.
- Reasoning drawn only from material in our library
- A footnote behind every proposition
- Warnings on authorities later doubted or reversed
- Turn findings into memos, issue lists and research notes
Judgment Digests
A tidy summary of each ruling, waiting for you before you open the full text.
Every ruling comes with a digest that sets out the material facts, the questions the court answered, its decision and reasoning, and how the case has fared since.
- Facts, questions, decision, ratio and remarks in passing
- Dissents and concurrences summarised separately
- Checked by a second editor before it goes live
- Copy any digest straight into your own notes
Good Law Check
Know whether an authority still stands before you put it in front of a judge.
Good Law Check follows each ruling through later decisions and records whether those courts adopted it, extended it, set it apart, questioned it or reversed it, with links straight to the relevant passages.
- A clear status marker on every ruling
- Later references ordered by court and date
- Each section of an Act linked to rulings that read it
- Notifications when a saved case is discussed again
Gazette Watch
A short digest of fresh legislation, central bank directives and notable rulings in your areas of practice.
Tell us which subjects you follow and Gazette Watch sends a compact summary to your inbox or your account, each entry pointing back to the official document.
- Arrives every day, every Monday or once a month
- Choose subjects and regulators to follow
- Draws on the Gazette, Parliament, Bank of Ghana and SEC
- Each entry opens the official text
