Legal expert systems, including rule-based ones (RBLES) have been around for four decades now. Their limitations are well-known and discussed in the literature. However, in our opinion, this technology has some underexplored potential and in this paper we highlight three such spheres: providing answers in restricted domains (in particular, in legal aid systems), enhancing information retrieval systems with respect to the notion of legal validity and performing important education functions. In the concluding part we also discuss the two spheres of possible future development of legal expert systems.
