Publisher's Synopsis
"No matter what kind of law you choose to practice, we are confident that the topics covered in this book will play a central role. Litigators in modern times resolve far more cases through consensual processes than through trial. Transactional lawyers negotiate the terms of deals. Family lawyers and their clients routinely attempt to mediate agreements before turning to a court to impose the terms of a parenting plan or a division of marital assets. Defense attorneys and prosecutors spend considerable energy negotiating plea agreements"-- Provided by. publisher.
