    About this ebook

    “The first thing we do, we kill all the lawyers:” Shakespeare may have had a point, but the truth is, from time to time, we all could use a good attorney. This survival guide won't replace legal counsel, but by stating your rights plainly, it can help with some pretty weighty matters-including prenups, breaking apartment leases, immigration, and workplace discrimination. Ronald M. Benrey helps solve basic legal quibbles at home, at work, and even on vacation. He provides an understanding of central legal principles, explains key vocabulary, and helps readers to overcome familiar misconceptions.
