About Caseway
Ever wonder why accessing legal help is so difficult - and so expensive, for the average person? We did too.
What Caseway Is
Making Legal Knowledge Accessible to Everyone
Our mission is simple but bold: to make legal knowledge accessible, affordable, and usable for everyone. We believe the justice system should not feel closed off to those without deep pockets or institutional power. Everyone deserves a fair chance to understand the law that governs their lives.
By combining trusted legal sources with modern technology, Caseway levels the playing field—empowering solo lawyers, small firms, businesses, and individuals navigating legal challenges on their own.

What We Stand For
Why We exist
Today, more than 70% of people going through the justice system do so without legal representation, largely due to cost. Millions are forced to navigate complex legal processes alone, often with devastating outcomes.
At the same time, the legal research system itself is broken.

Why Caseway Got Started
The human cost of the status quo
Caseway indexes millions of court decisions across Canada and the United States — many hundreds of pages long. Finding the relevant case used to take hours. Caseway returns cited answers in seconds.
When lawyers bill $300+ per hour, even basic research quickly becomes unaffordable for everyday people. Traditional platforms charge exorbitant monthly fees or pay-per-search costs, pricing out solo practitioners, small firms, and the public altogether. The result is information inequality: those with resources get better legal outcomes, while everyone else struggles.
We believe this isn't just inefficient—it's unjust.
Caseway was built to fix this.

The Experience Behind Caseway
Meet the Founder, Alistair Vigier
Caseway was founded by Alistair Vigier, a former Canadian Army soldier turned legal-tech entrepreneur.
Raised in a military family, Alistair spent seven years in the Canadian Armed Forces, including passing pre-selection for JTF2. That experience instilled a discipline-first mindset and a bias toward action—qualities that continue to define Caseway's culture.
After an injury ended his military career, Alistair transitioned into the legal world, working as a law firm business development manager. There, he helped grow a firm's revenue to over $3.5M and earned BC Business 30 Under 30 recognition. But he also saw how resistant the legal industry was to change.
That frustration led him to entrepreneurship.
In 2021, Alistair founded Clearway, which became the largest lawyer-review platform in Canada and the UK, serving hundreds of thousands of users per month. That experience revealed an even bigger opportunity: legal research itself was the bottleneck.
In September 2024, he founded Caseway with a clear vision—to use technology to make legal information radically more accessible.
