Q. How do I check legal abbreviations or the full name of a legal journal?

Abbreviations are used when citing cases and journal articles.If you only have part of the name, or just the abbreviation, you can obtain the full name by doing a search in the Cardiff Index to Legal Abbreviations. 

Cardiff Index to Legal Abbreviations is a free website which allows users to search by title or abbreviation.

Alternatively you can look up the abbreviation using the book Index to Legal Citations and Abbreviations by Donald Raistrick.
