I was very happy with the service. The book came very quickly. There was a problem with the edition, but Godsfeet4 took care of it quickly and cheerfully.
All of the stuff that would make "Boston Legal" boring.
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
A masterpiece in its time, "Boston Legal" follows the antics of trial attorneys Alan Shore and Denny Crane. Each week (or, at the least, each good week), one or both find themselves suing or defending some timely issue in unique circumstances. Clients who enter the law offices of Crane, Poole & Schmidt on a Monday tend to have resolution by the following Friday, as Alan and Denny tend to waive a great deal of legal business. Witnesses are grilled, eloquent closings are given, and the show closes with the pair enjoying fine Scotch and cigars on the balcony. This book covers all of that waived material that would make the show terribly boring. Thus, this book is terribly boring. Highly recommended.
Don't Fail to Read This Book

This book is a perfect companion book to a trial advocacy textbook. The book takes the student/lawyer from the beginning of a case through the moment just before trial. There is a lot of material to cover and Mauet does so very effectively. As an aside, I am amazed by how clear his table of contents reads. The table does not just contain subject headings but is an excellent outline for anyone to refer to in their practice. Mauet provides not only a wonderful overview of all the things a lawyer needs to consider in litigating a case but also provides practical tips such as how to conduct discovery on a limited budget. If you are a young lawyer, Mauet answers questions you may be afraid to ask such as "How do I start the deposition?" Believe it or not, something so basic is not covered in law school, but Mauet provides the answers here.
