Editorial Reviews

Review

"For those interested in a more in-depth analysis of how to run a small business..." -- The Wall Street Journal

Small business owners receive a fine reference title containing all the forms, documents and contracts they'll need within the course of running their operation; from employee agreements and credit documents to litigation documents and others. Completed samples allow readers to understand various options involved in filling out the forms. It's these samples which make this more than just a listing of forms, teaching business owners how to best make use of a given legal option. -- Midwest Book Review

5.0 out of 5 stars I fired my lawyer!, November 9, 2003
By A Customer
Not really...but almost. I don't have to run to my lawyer all the times for business, real estate and personal forms. It's all here.Just use the nady disk provided and fill in the blanks.By the way, Dicks does explain when and how to use an attorney. Those tips alone saved me thousands. Not bad for a$20 investment.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very complete - ideal for small business/everyday people, November 8, 2003
By 
We're Going Places!! (www.travelganza.gttrends.net) - See all my reviews
I just picked up a copy of this book tonite at out local BAMM store. It is 450 pages packed with forms on just about everything you need from power of attorney forms, concession agreements, writing to your credit card company and writing late payment noticed to your tenants. And a whole lot more.

It also comes with a floppy disk with easy fill in the blank forms. You will find all the forms you need for investment and personal use, corporate forms, employment forms, real estate forms and general business forms.

Dicks also talks about the legal system, when and how to work with a lawyer.

It's reasonably priced too.
