The Legal Handbook of Business Transactions: A Guide for Managers and Entrepreneurs

This invaluable reference tool covers the potential legal liability of businesses, the costs of failing to comply with legal obligations, and the legal rights afforded businesses under the law. The authors combine a theoretical focus with an applied, practical approach to minimizing legal costs. The guide addresses such topics as raising capital, buying real estate, extending credit, collecting accounts, borrowing money, advertising, selling goods, negotiating contracts, maintaining a safe work place, managing employees, keeping business records, contracting with the federal government, the impact of the new federal tax law, and more. Throughout the volume, the reader is alerted to those highly technical and complex regulatory areas where legal counsel is clearly advisable. Consideration is also given to selecting and working effectively with a lawyer in such circumstances.Lashbrooke, E.
