Executive Juris Doctor: The General Princples of Business Law
"This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice.
Best Business Practices covers the business courses typically included in law school curricula. Your goal should be to understand the basic principles of business law. While you don't have to be a lawyer to represent yourself in small matters, you do need to know when to hire an attorney and when you can handle a business law matter yourself. Judges typically allow greater latitude for discretion when dealing with pro se matters; however, you first want to acquire a rudimentary understanding of the fundamental principles of law, including contracts, civil law and procedure, property law, wills & trusts law, corporate law, insurance law, and labor law. These courses are essential for understanding the general principles of business law and how the legal system interacts with business and society.
Taking notes and developing an outline are standard practices for law students and help significantly retain critical information. In the study of law, try to think in a back-and-forth iambic pentameter manner and always be prepared to argue either side. In a classroom setting, the instructor typically assigns legal cases for students to review and draft a brief. The brief should be just that, as brief as possible. When called on at random, students recite the facts, identify the issue, state the rule of law, and conclude. The instructor, playing Socrates, will keep questioning the student and subtly altering the facts to test the student's ability to speak extemporaneously and answer logically, based on the case's rationale. The most critical aspect of thinking like a lawyer, beyond understanding the laws themselves, is analyzing facts, assessing the most vital issues, determining the rule of law, and understanding its rationale."
