Full Description
The "Legal Practice Course Guides" provide a guide to the law, practice and procedure that are at the heart of the legal practice course. Each book explains the relevant substantive and procedural law and, where appropriate, contains sample precedents, documents, and checklists. The guides form a bridge between the notes, exercises and case studies produced by each institution and the "raw material" found in practitioner texts. This text has been written principally for students of corporate finance, public companies, mergers and acquisitions or similar electives on the legal practice course. It offers comprehensive coverage of of key topics such as regulatory superstructure, corporate governance, securities offerings, acquisitions, joint ventures, management buy-outs, takeovers and corporate creativity.
