This book offers a comprehensive insight into the legal action process from the moment the client arrives at the office to the trial and subsequent proceedings, including settlements and other forms of resolutions. The effective, well-rounded approach provides a lucid, thorough overview of the legal action process, without getting lost in numerous regulations and procedures that might hinder the learning process. The clear, adaptable structure of the text enables the instructor to easily select and focus on specific areas within the course. Educational aids throughout the text, such as highlighted terms defined in the margins and the glossary; various examples, charts, checklists, and sample documents; chapter summaries and overviews; and review questions, make the material much more accessible to students. The legal action file at the end of the material allows the student to observe examples, not just read about the motions, pleadings, and discovery requests that are part of a legal case.
