Court Data Australia

This website is the only publicly available archive I know of containing (recent) historical court listings across several states and jurisdictions, which are ordinarily listed for a limited duration on court and tribunal websites but disappear afterwards and are thereafter difficult or impossible to obtain. As a PhD candidate and employed legal researcher this proved a highly useful resource. By chance I had been collecting some of the same data myself and was unaware that CDA existed. When I discovered CDA, I figured I could use it to patch up holes in my own dataset, as well as validate the data I'd already collected. However, I had issues extracting the amount and type of data I needed for my specific research purposes using the website UI. I called CDA, explained my issue, and received prompt and generous help over the phone and in the ensuing email thread. The website is seemingly - and understandably - built more so for searching records than to offer a direct route for legal researchers to view aggregate data at scale. Nonetheless, the excellent help I subsequently received saved me (at least) a day or two worth of effort. The owner of the service was kind enough to compile the requested data himself and send it to me, according to my specifications and desired format. After checking it against my own collection, I can confirm that the sample of CDA hearing records I requested is accurate and comprehensive, and I thank the owner for his generosity and time. I will certainly be using the service again. I cannot speak generally, and only as a researcher, but the listings I accessed to do not pose significant privacy risks to individuals and contain a good deal of otherwise inaccessible information that is in the public interest.

Due Dilligence is highly recomended to use this site and result. Be aware that no data prior of 2017 is shown and authenticity of result is also not verified. Somewhere in site it does state that no data available prior of 2017, it is gimmic to save from legal action and very hard to locate. My personal opinion with experience--Stay away from this site. Donot waste time and money on this site.

Love this service. Very useful tool within our business to protect ourselves and our clients.

A unique service which provides comprehensive results.I was grateful they offer a very cheap 1 hour subscription as they could charge a lot more.
