"I love the comprehensive case studies! This is one of my favorite things about the book! It's a great hands-on method of teaching research. I believe the author has done it in both an engaging and straightforward manner that students will find appealing." - Sonia Toson, Kennesaw State University, Atlanta, GA   "The practical problems are an appropriate inclusion in this text. They help to affirm the broad range of tasks assigned to paralegals and the dedication to detail that paralegals must have in the real world." - Deborah Hoffman, Columbus State Community College, Columbus, OH   "My community college students could very easily understand this work. The writing level for my students is great! Not too easy but not too difficult." - Lisa Robinson, Central Carolina Community College, Raleigh, NC     "I love the smoothness and the quality of writing. I teach at the vocational associate and bachelor level and feel that the book would and could raise the bar (that I love) but at the same time needs to accommodate the current needs and level of the quality of the student." - Carina Aguirre, Everest College and Platt College, Fontana, CA     "I think it is perfect for paralegal students. The author really has a feel for what students know, as well as what they need to know, and he writes in a style and at a level that will engage the students and make them want to read the chapter materials." - Steve Dayton, Fullerton College, Whittier, CA    , "I love the comprehensive case studies!

    I must say from the very beginning of this transaction that everything went smooth. The seller gave me a good quality product for a great price that was brand new and appeared to be better than what was pictured. I plan on purchasing more products in the near future from this seller. The product was shipped and packaged with care and love. Magnificent communication and all of what I said makes this seller a great asset to the eBay community as well as the marketplace.

    The seller was incredibly communicative and was willing to lump together multiple items I'd purchased to combine shipping, which was greatly appreciated. The item itself was in perfect condition, looks better than in the photo, and was packaged well to avoid any damage during shipping. It arrived quickly and without any issues! Excellent Seller, Goes the Extra Mile. Smooth Transaction, Shipped Very Quickly, As Advertised; Good Price; Well Packaged & Delivered Within a Few Days. A+
