Jurisdictions
Judicio's Legal Research supports 100+ jurisdictions across six continents, including 33 with a dedicated legal database for the deepest coverage, and the rest researched across the open web. This page lists the available jurisdictions organized by region, along with the primary sources and court coverage for key jurisdictions.
Research is not limited to the jurisdictions below. The ones listed have a dedicated database or a named primary source; anywhere else, Research works from the open web and still cites what it finds. Contact support if you need to know what is available for a particular jurisdiction.

How jurisdiction selection affects your research
When you select a jurisdiction in the top-bar switcher:
- Primary source jurisdictions (Canada, US, India, UK, EU) are searched through their dedicated integration, providing the most comprehensive results.
- General coverage jurisdictions are searched through Judicio's broader AI research capabilities. Results are reliable but may have less granular citation coverage.
- Multiple jurisdictions can be selected simultaneously for comparative research. Judicio structures the results to highlight differences and similarities across jurisdictions.
Jurisdiction sets the catalogue. Which parts of that catalogue a run may search is a separate choice, saved to your profile, and made in Repositories under Settings on the Research home. See Composing Queries.
Choose which sources a run searches
The browser lists the courts, tribunals and regulators of the active jurisdiction, grouped by category, with All High Courts folding open into individual benches.
If your matter involves a jurisdiction with dedicated source integration (Canada, US, India, UK, EU), you will get the most detailed and citation-rich results. For other jurisdictions, consider supplementing Judicio's research with local database searches.
