This book is a briefer paperback version of the widely-adopted Miller/Jentz BUSINESS LAW TODAY: THE STANDARD EDITION. THE ESSENTIALS offers the very same traits that have made that book so successful edition after edition - fundamentally that it provides the legal credibility and authoritativeness of a traditional business law book, while also offering the visual appeal and student friendly features students are used to seeing in books for many of their other courses. Though the book is fun for users to read, it does not accomplish this at the expense of important information - it goes into the necessary detail to completely explain law topics.

Strategies that are effective and legal for putting one’s assets safely out of reach

In today’s increasingly litigious world, the shielding of assets has become a prominent issue for financial planners, business owners, and high-net-worth individuals. Asset Protection details methods that are both legally and morally legitimate for protecting one’s assets from creditors, lawsuits, and scams.

Bringing economic common sense and legitimacy to an area that is drowning in gimmickry, two of today’s top lawyers examine the fundamental issues in this growing area, avoiding dense legalese to make the book accessible to anyone. Asset Protection covers everything readers want to know about:

• Establishing an effective asset protection program
• Today’s most popular, established strategies
• Newer strategies that are still being resolved by the courts

In 1963, the first edition of  Legal and Regulatory Environment of Business, authored by Bob Corley, started a new course emphasizing the legal environment in which business is conducted. By focusing on the public nature of how government regulates business activities, rather than simply how businesses privately make transactions, a movement away from traditional Business Law began. Through its previous 14 editions, The Legal and Regulatory Environment of Business  has been the leader in setting the standard for materials covered in an introduction to the legal and regulatory environment of business.

The 12th edition of  Business Law with UCC applications  presents an up-to-date teaching-learning system that is written in an easy-to-understand style and provides comprehensive information about all facets of business law. Material is presented in nine sections, which include relevant case studies featuring excerpts from the court's opinion. Content has been updated to reflect the many recent changes in the legal field and color photos throughout the text help students relate the material to their own lives.

With over two hundred individual fact citations in over one hundred different sources, Kings of Tort has been impeccably researched. It used primary sources like the highly acclaimed book by Michael Orey entitled Assuming the Risk and Dan Zegart's book Civil Warriors. The book has also sourced information via articles from publications and media outlets such as the Clarion Ledger, the Sun Herald, the Wall Street Journal, the New York Times, the Washington Post, and the Los Angeles Times. That research has been supplemented with interviews and perspectives from those on all sides of this complicated story. All that were significantly involved in this story were invited in writing to participate. Most notably, Dickie Scruggs, Paul Minor, former Attorney General Mike Moore, and Attorney General Jim Hood all declined (either directly or through legal counsel) to be interviewed after multiple attempts.

This casebook provides the tools for the study of the law of securities regulation. This edition has been extensively revised and reorganized.

It includes a new chapter on shareholder voting and updated coverage of SEC enforcement actions and criminal liability, as well as state securities law, international issues, and the regulation of investment companies.
