Abstract
This manuscript proposes an ontological approach for legal aspects in the Romanian juridical system, aimed to help legal professionals to easily find legislative information. The necessity of creating a legal ontology specific to the Romanian juridical context resides in the fact that, although different state institutions hold various databases storing documents, there is a lack of centralization of these data. Creating a shareable ontology to which all legal institutions would have access might be an up to date solution to this situation. This paper presents the legal ontology OntoLaw, together with a legal management and information retrieval expert system called OntoLawApp.
