Looking for a place to start when researching the law and legal system of a country outside the United States?  Start your research with Foreign Law Guide.

Users can search for desired concepts and countries, or may browse by country name or by one of over 60 subject categories.  The subjects provide a useful entry to comparative law between and among different jurisdictions.
