"Getting around the law library can be easy--if you just know where to look-and
Legal Research the place to begin".
Library Journal
"The 16th updated edition of
Legal Research: How to Find & Understand the Law tells how to locate key laws and cases either online or in a law library, how to draft legal memoranda, and how to make the most of the Web and a legal library to locate statutes, cases, background information and answers to specific legal issues. Chapters offer keys to organization, "shepardizing", prioritizing, using indexes, and analyzing the effect of a case on your particular issue: in short, it outlines the basics of an attorney's research and judgment process and will help users save hundreds of dollars in attorney fees just by doing some of the legal legwork that anyone can do. Very highly recommended!"
The Midwest Book Review
"The simplest, most concise and articulate description of the legal research process available."
Tom Holm, Director of Lawyering Skills Clinical Program UCLA School of Law
