Inhaltsangabe

It's the Law - A Layperson's Guide is exactly as the tile indicates: an overview of our system and principles that apply to the American Judicial System. It is written in nontechnical language by an attorney with the objective of explaining to the layperson the sources of our law: i.e., what exactly constitutes the law, how our judicial system words and then a further explanation of specific areas of the law that may impact your daily life. It will be extremely useful to every citizen who may at some point in there life become involved in a proceeding. The book is not specific to one state but is written in general terms which apply to virtually all jurisdictions. The book is a resource to be reviewed when a question arises and may avoid the need to formally contact an attorney.

Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Through my service in the Marine Corps, four years as a patrol officer with the Washington D.C. Metropolitan Police Department and 45 years as a trial lawyer in the Washington, D.C. area, I have "been around the barn." Since being admitted to the practice of law in Virginia in 1976, I have tried more than 300 jury cases and handled thousands of other cases of every conceivable type. In 1985, I became a partner with the firm of Johnson & Roche in McLean, Virginia. My practice has been principally litigation with a focus on tort litigation along with substantial involvement in commercial litigation, real estate litigation and domestic relations litigation.My interest in writing fiction ties in with my interest in the study of history. The main character in the Prohibition series is not a historical character but he acts as part of some historical events including the race riot of July 19, 1919 in Washington, D.C. Most of the other events are purely fictional but many of the characters of course are not. The existence of the Liberator boats is fact-based as these watercrafts were constructed as part of the U.S. war effort in Europe. The integration of fact and fiction is always tricky but hopefully these novels instill some further interest in the reader in this historical era and in further historical exploration.
