Commercial Law Applied: Learn To Play The Game

This is must reading for every American. Commerce is the electricity which powers life on this globe. Failure to understand how it works is a failure to harness the power you need to be effective in life and relegates you to the heap of 'ignorant victims' when the system will chew you up and spit you out after fleecing you for all you have. The book is an easy read for all of the 'non-lawyers' among us. It it is a wonderful primer on fundamental issues we all need to be fluent in. As someone who is already well versed in such matters, I found it's review a refreshing reminder of some of the most substantive elements of commerce which we all need to have a firm grasp of. Reviewer 'David-Not Even Close' is way off base in his analysis as he seems to have expected a comprehensive treatise of law on the subject with complete footnoted legal memorandum. That is 'not even close' to the purpose of the book and would be impossible in the short 150 pages the author put together. Further, to say that the courts don't recognize anything this book puts forward is pure folly. The courts, the government and private companies operate on the very principles brought forward on a daily basis. Having said that, using the courts as a 'barometer' for validity is like asking Obama for business advice! Truth and justice based on time tested maxims of law which are inescapable, and what the courts selectively enforce and rule on are often mutually exclusive which leads me to believe that Reviewer David is himself not interested in truth and law, but rather has an agenda to disparage this great book in the hopes that people won't find the truth! Too late David... the tidal wave is swelling!

I learned so much!

I'd recommend this book to any one that wants to learn

good book if you interesting how to applied commercial law

Useful information. If you have a high schooler or you home school, this subject should be a consideration. Regular curriculum does not prepare the youth for real life in my opinion.

A good read. We have to do the work to learn.

Before I bought this book, I saw two extreme reviews, 'pretty darn good' and 'not even close'. Here's what I concluded, if you're in the courtroom for something you've already done, too late. However, if you're not in the courtroom, their are things you can do about it.Their are people who will harass you, and look like they're doing it legally, but if you know the rules, you can do something about it. For instance, when you sign a title deed on your property, because your solicitor told you to do so, what has actually happened is you have deeded your land away, and must pay land tax or rates to use it. Deed in a legal dictionary means to give it away. The solicitor has solicited you to do it. And so if you don't pay the fee, tough, you already signed. Now this example is in 'the Matrix as it is', and possibly 'Hardcore Redemption in law', although it explains it in different terms. The reason deeds exist, is because contracts are prominent. And contracts mean that both sides get something out of the deal. So they came up with deeds to say, if someone wants to give something away, they sign a deed saying they give it away with nothing in return.So this is what it means to get yourself sorted before court. One of the most helpful things I learnt was details about filing an affidavit. You can file an affidavit against someone, and if they don't dispute it within 30 days, then what you've said about them stands as truth, and they owe what you've said they owe. If they dispute it, then it goes to court. Either way what they've done can become public. So if they don't want it to be made public, well they should just pay up quickly.Also, this book is very chronological, in some of his other books, it covers just a piece of the puzzle, but this seems to have everything you need to know about fighting back in a legal way. The other advice would be something like, don't sign what you shouldn't, make sure you know the legal ramifications first, and people use duress to get you to sign something you shouldn't have. I know their's plenty of other things, but those are the things that stand out to me.

I am still reading, but this book is very insightful

Very good

I used this very important information in my research of becoming a State National.

There is no book that will offer "full picture" and proper solution to matter discussed, but as a partial info disclosure it is OK.

Great information, arrived on time and in good condition. I would recommend it.

Good information
