From Wex, everyone's resource for law learning
Welcome
Welcome to Wex, a collaboratively built, freely available legal dictionary and encyclopedia.
What is Wex?
Wex is an ambitious effort to construct a collaboratively-created, public-access law dictionary and encyclopedia. It is sponsored and hosted by the Legal Information Institute at the Cornell Law School (http://www.lawschool.cornell.edu/). Much of the material that appears in Wex was originally developed for the LII's "Law about..." pages, to which Wex is the successor.
More information about Wex, its aims, and project plans can be found in the Wex FAQ.
A list of all existing pages is here.
