Westlaw New Zealand - Creating and organising favourites

Last Published: January 16, 2020

Creating favourites is a convenient way to store links to content you frequently search. This guide demonstrates how to add, view, and manage your favourites.

The following resource titles can be added to your favourites: Secondary sources, Key Numbers, Legislation titles, parts and sub-parts, A to Z of New Zealand Law, News and Current Awareness, Government and Regulatory Materials, Forms and Precedents.

Individual content, such as individual news articles, cases, sections of Legislation, and specific forms and precedents, should be added to a folder instead.
