AI legal research for California.

California coverage.

Aewita indexes California's full appellate corpus — opinions of the Supreme Court of California, as well as the California Courts of Appeal (six appellate districts) — from 1850 through today. It also indexes California's 29 codes, including the Civil Code, Code of Civil Procedure, Business and Professions Code, Evidence Code, and Penal Code, the California Rules of Court, and the applicable constitutional provisions. Federal opinions from the Ninth Circuit, which sits over California, are indexed alongside state authority so cross-jurisdictional research happens in a single pass.

How attorneys in California use Aewita.

California is the largest and most substantively varied state bar in the country, and Aewita is built to handle it. Tech and IP boutiques in San Francisco and Palo Alto use it for patent, trade-secret, and privacy research. Los Angeles entertainment and employment firms run it across PAGA, wage-and-hour, and guild-related litigation. Real-estate and CEQA practitioners across the state use it for fast environmental and land-use research. San Diego and Sacramento firms use it across the full Ninth Circuit and California Supreme Court corpus. Solos and small firms finally get parity with AmLaw 100 research infrastructure.

California Bar resources.

The State Bar of California is the primary professional authority for California attorneys. When using AI tools in California practice, the governing ethical framework tracks ABA Model Rules 1.1 (competence, including technological competence) and 1.6 (confidentiality). Aewita's self-hosted architecture is designed with those duties in mind — every citation is verified, and client data is not used to train external models.
