About this ebook

Information that reduces the panic factor, familiarizes you with legal language, and helps you overcome misconceptions when commonplace legal issues arise.

“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.

Topics include:
  • Workplace rights
  • Prenups and postnups
  • Identity theft
  • Disputes with neighbors
  • New rules of personal bankruptcy
  • Your rights as a tenant—and a landlord
  • Living wills and power of attorney
  • Police searches of your home and car
  • And many more
