Pretrial [Connected eBook with Study Center]

by Thomas A. Mauet

This clear and concise book organizes pretrial planning into a series of steps students can easily master. Ordinary law school classes give students very few opportunities to learn about how lawyers prepare and manage cases. Pretrial introduces students to all aspects of case development, litigation, and settlement, ranging from the initial client interview to the analysis of settlement strategy and terms. It provides sample documentation for each stage of the civil case. An invaluable text for law students, Pretrial also gives new lawyers straightforward instruction as they immerse themselves in the real world of litigation practice. New to the Tenth Professors and students will benefit

[Margaret Nelson · Rating 5 out of 5]

Absolutely the best written law book on litigation! This was written by a U of AZ law prof. And I read it for my Paralegal class. It was not the class text, but I was feeling a bit confused with litigation process, etc... Needless to say, I received the highest grades in both Litigation I & II. It was due to this book and the straightforward explanation of the rules and laws for the courtroom process.

Assigned by attorney Scott Gordon - a fascinating, in-depth look into organizing and preparing for trial and/or settlement. (Better, I think, than Mauet's Trial book)

Perfect for lawyers. Good to have handy

Thorough and easy-to-read (for a 443 page book on legal matters).
