LawLens Search

Use this to discover exact court, case type, judge, author, act token, or provision token values before a filtered judgment search. Options can be narrowed with existing filters and a literal prefix. For example, request courts with prefix Delhi, then judges filtered to a returned court. For a provision, obtain its ACT token, then request provisions filtered by that act token. Counts refer to indexed records, not unique judgments.

get_search_options

Use this to retrieve indexed text and metadata for an ID returned by search or search_legal_documents. Returns its citation URL. Content is indexed excerpts and may be incomplete; never describe it as the full judgment or as verified law. Consult the source URL for the original.

fetch

Use this for simple keyword searches of Indian judgments. Returns document IDs, titles and citation URLs. Use short keywords and quoted phrases, not a long legal question. For courts, parties, dates, legislation, or other filters use search_legal_documents. Does not generate an answer or verify citations.

search

Use this for configurable keyword search over Indian judgments or legislation. Supports all/any words, phrases, proximity, must/should/excluded field conditions, exact court, judge, case-type, citation and diary filters, parties including swapped roles, date ranges, and same-reference act/provision filters. Use get_search_options for exact stored values. Defaults to judgments, all words, and 10 results. Filter-only searches are allowed. Legislation supports act_name/section_name/text/title conditions and date/document filters only. Return next_offset to paginate. Text is indexed excerpts, not guaranteed complete documents; this tool never verifies a legal authority or calls an AI model.
