5.0 out of 5 stars A no-nonsense, "user friendly" guidebook, June 8, 2002
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
Contractor's Plain-English Legal Guide by construction law attorney Quenda Story is a no-nonsense, "user friendly" guidebook to dealing with tangled legal issues that are so much a part of the conflict-laden, litigation prone business world of construction. From the basic requirements of a contract to dealing with the IRS to warranties and choosing a lawyer, Contractor's Plain-English Legal Guide explains the details in terminology lay readers can readily understand. A highly recommended and practical reference for prime contractors and subcontractors, Contractor's Plain-English Legal Guide is also invaluable for anyone else involved with, or considering a career in, the business and contractual end of the construction industry.
