Wexis

Wexis is a humorous term used to refer to the two academic publishing conglomerates which dominate the legal information services industry, namely Westlaw and LexisNexis.

Neither of these companies is independent—they are parts of much larger conglomerates which dominate the entire information services sector. Westlaw is owned by The Thomson Corporation, while LexisNexis is a division of Reed Elsevier.
