Big Firms Only
I've been devouring legal marketing books as I prepare to open a two-person practice. I skimmed through this book and found it to be distinctly unhelpful. You wouldn't know it from the book's self-description, but it is primarily aimed at marketing large law firms (100+ lawyers) with huge marketing budgets. If you are a small firm or solo practitioner, look elsewhere. Even in terms of its big-firm focus, the book is far too broad and generic to provide much useful advice and guidance.

occ. nurse reads andloves
I have reviewed and tried to read numerous books on the osha guidelines but this is without a doubt the best! The information was understandable and informative and the narative wasinterjected enough to keep me awake.I especially found the section, chapter, on what is osha recordable / whatis not most helpful. This chapter alone makes the book worth purchasing. Italso provided a generous amount of details on others regulations andinspections tips. ... Read more

If you live in Texas read this
I have perused several books on this topic and found this one to be much more informative about how Texas laws are very unique in regards to avoiding probate.In fact, most other books don't even mention this.It seems that for every one of these avoidance techmiques, the TX laws are very different in very specific ways and if you don't have everything done according to the letter of the TX law, you could end up with big problems.For example, only in the state of TX do you have to sign a separate written agreement with just the right language and other specifics in order for right of survivorship to actually work in avoiding probate.Not many people are aware of this and even most of the bankiing institutions are unaware.Even the big banking institutions will tell you that their methods are valid and correct when, in fact, they are not. Several cases have gone to the TX Supreme Court because of this.Don't let it happen to you.It is a huge problem.This book educates you on every issue and how it has to be handled differently indifferent states.
Worth every penny.
Get the book, read it twice and avoid the time, expense and aggravation of a probate.Having gone through a probate, I can tell you that this is something you want to avoid. wonderful read
I just recently used this book as part of my study to gain continuing professional education credits for my CPA license. I found it to be an excellent source for anyone who is currently planning his or her family's financial future. It's easy to understand, direct, and written with common-sense language. I will be recommending this book to my clients. ... Read more

A Good Way to Start Learning About Law
This is one of the "how-to" books that are fun to read even if you are not faced with a situation which requires it.This well-written book covers a wide range of legal topics that an American citizen may face one of these days.Much emphasis is placed on things like maritalproblems, parenting problems, employment issues, consumer and creditproblems, etc.Needless to say it does NOT replace a good lawyer when thecase is complex, but the author actually encourages you to "take thelaw into your own hand" and shows you how you can solve a number ofeveryday legal difficulties without hiring a lawyer.Read more

Great Book!
This is a great book for anyone whom is interested in pursuing alternative paths to becoming an attorney. The author lays out all of the information in a clear and concise manner. Buy this book!

Inspiring and Practical
I read this book and I believe that I could be a lawyer. Mr Loughlin's personal story let's you know that if you are willing to do the work you can achieve just about anything. The book also comes with a great deal of practical advice as well as invaluable list of where to go to get the information you need. It is totally comprehensive and complete in telling you exactly what to do to become an attorney without traditional law school. Amazing book! ... Read more

best law book ever
Some reviewer for a statistics journal called Phil Good's "Applying Statistics in the Courtroom" the best book ever written on statistics and the law.Given the fine books by Finkelstein, by Gastwirth and the deGroot, Feinberg and Kadane book, I think that was a gross overstatement.Phil does however get away from legalese and tries to present key issues. Statistics for statisticians
This book will prove USELESS unless you already have a strong grasp of statistics concepts.It is NOT a math book though it claims to be one. ... Read more
