Reviews
... helps laypeople navigate the sometimes murky waters of contractual agreements. Library Journal Nolo is a pioneer in both consumer and business self-help books and software. Los Angeles Times From the Author: This book will help you save money by explaining which clauses are important so that you can avoid a pricey professional review by a lawyer. Written in plain English, this book is especially useful for law students and business owners (including one-person operations and independent contractors), but still contains enough detail to have a place on nearly any lawyer's bookshelf.
