Download or read book Business Law and Organizations for Paralegals written by Emily Lynch Morissette and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What makes Business Law and Organizations for Paralegals incredibly different than the other books in this field is that it covers a large variety of subjects important to corporate law, as well as the basics of corporate law, while doing so in a manageable number of pages and at an affordable price. The additional aspects covered in this book, which are of great importance to the practice of corporate law, include employment law, intellectual property law, contracts, investing, the business entity as a litigant, and corporate ethics. This book could be used to teach those subjects, especially intellectual property, in addition to corporate law, thus reducing the necessity of students buying two books for two separate classes. Even if these subjects are not covered in additional classes, it is extremely important with the current economy to introduce students to a wide variety of subjects so as to increase their job prospects. For example, intellectual property is currently one of the fastest growing segments of our economy. The second edition of Business Law and Organizations for Paralegals provides updates on new legal changes, especially in the law of Limited Liability Companies. In addition, both the teacher's manual and the textbook have more state-specific information, for each state in the nation. Some of the additional subjects are covered to provide students with a basis of knowledge for their own benefit, such as investing. While some students may not be interested in the basics of corporate law, most are interested in investing, which is something that can apply to them individually. The basics of corporate law is also well-covered, including sole proprietorships, general partnerships, limited partnerships, limited liability partnerships, limited liability companies, and for-profit corporations (with several chapters covering for-profit corporations). The following Teaching Materials are available: Test bank in Word, Blackboard-compatible and Moodle formats available. Other LMS formats are available through Respondus. Teacher's Manual pdf with outlines, review questions and exercises. PowerPoint slides are available upon adoption. Sample slides from the full 338-slide presentation are available to view here.

She does a masterful job of balancing practice and theory. Her engaging discussions of intellectual property and litigation set this text apart from the competition. This book deserves my wholehearted endorsement." -- D. Patrick O'Laughlin, University of San Diego "The opening chapter of this textbook started as it should, and as many do not, with agency. From there on out it provided an insightful and fresh look at the concepts covered...The text also contains useful tools for the students. The chapter exercises involving critical thinking, for example, are one key to helping educators develop paralegals who have a foundation for success." -- Mary Teresa Sesson, Cuyamaca College

Download or read book Legal Logic A Guide for Paralegals and Law Students written by Ron Villanova and published by Paralegal Foundation Course. This book was released on 2004-10 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The substance of this book is derived from lectures presented to working paralegals as the first in a series of "foundation courses" intended to supplement their prior education and experience and to enhance their capacity to more competently handle tasks normally handled by lawyers. The course, and this book, is a condensed version of a full semester course in Aristotelian logic, tailored to the needs of people engaged in the analysis of legal issues, either as employee or as student. There are several primary objectives. the first is not to create logicians, but to foster the students' awareness of their own reasoning processes by discussing the importance of words, their definitions, uses and relationships, and to provide tools for testing whether conclusions are valid or invalid using formal (logical) analysis. The second broader objective is to provide a foundation for further study and use of the principles of effective communication and interpretation of communication. Another more specific objective is to show the use of the tools of logic in a legal context, particularly the formal analysis of case law. About the author: The author has practiced law since 1967. During his tenure as Counsel with a major financial services corporation, he was responsible for its law department's paralegals and paralegal development program. Those duties led him to develop the three foundation courses that are now available in book and digital form: Legal Logic, Legal Promise, and Legal Method.
