Jurimatrics is the empirical study of law with an application of scientific methods. The term 'Jurimetrics' originated in the 1960s along with the advent of computers in practice and research in law. The term was coined by Lee Loevinger, who contended that knowledge of law could be obtained by observation, and he stressed on the application of scientific and statistical methods in law.
