Summary: A simple, direct, straightforward, "user friendly" guide
Comment: Now in its tenth edition, Legal Research: How To Find & Understand The Law by attorneys Stephen Elias and Susan Levinkind is a simple, direct, straightforward, "user friendly" guide to the extremely complicated and tricky topic of doing legal research. Individual chapters address how to properly frame questions in legal categories and efficiently look up relevant laws and case history. Legal Research is emphatically not a substitute for a consultation with an attorney; however, a close reading followed by judicious use of its fact-finding methods is a superbly effective way for non-specialist general readers to prepare themselves before sitting down with a billed-by-the-hour consultation with a licensed attorney or paralegal researcher!
Rating: 5
Summary: One of the best available
Comment: If you have a modicum of introduction to the law, and need a guidebook on "how to" go about researching a legal question, this book is one of the best available. It does assume that you have some working knowledge of how law works, but is an especially good book for either first year law students or paralegal students beyond their introductory courses. Well worth having on your shelf.

Summary: Minor Correction To Review of Martin Diosdado
Comment: I made a Minor Error....Section 18-9-111 of The Colorado Revised Statutes is a Class III Misdemeanor. By "Practice" alone, you will not be allowed access to a Court-Appointed Attorney or a Public Defender. By "Practice" alone you will be forced to complain to your District Attorney by means of "The Barker Test" about your lack of a Speedy Trial without using Profane or Vulgar Language - and about the D.A.'s not inforcing your State of Colorqado and The U.S. Constituttion's requierment to your being furnished a Court Appointed Attorney when you cannot purchase one. Don't forget to "Stand Mute" at any Arraignmment" that in the "Street Jargon" the Court of Colorado uses in calling your Arraignment a "First Appearance". After all, how can you enter a Plea of any kind withour your Contitutional Right to the Protection of a Defence Attorney? Don't forget to ask your Deputy D.A. for his/her business card so you can write the same "Barker Test" each week...to remind them that they went to a Law School of some kind, and are thought to be, by many, the Premier in Educated Minds in North America!
Once you are done with "The Barker Test" and have somehow acquiered a Public Defender, to write the Defender that you will have Letters of Memorandum to remind this Defender of what was said. Note that no one writes notes of conversations any more, and your Defender will need all the help you can give them! Please do not use much in the way of Latin Phrases, as this may scare the Defender into a Default or Reset mode....
Once you realize that you can do this as well as any attorney, be very afraid as your do "Discovery" from the D.A.'s office to find out what they have. Many Defenders are very busy
