Ohio Legal Research


Book Description

Ohio Legal Research provides a concise introduction to Ohio-specific primary authorities and research tools for readers new to legal research or new to researching Ohio law. Ohio Legal Research introduces federal resources alongside their Ohio counterparts, which makes the text useful for an introductory research course that covers both state and federal research. Written with the understanding that research is best learned by practice, this book offers succinct explanation to guide the novice without including so much as to overwhelm. The updated second edition incorporates recent changes to the major electronic research platforms, while maintaining a process focus that will help the reader no matter which platform is available. Updated web addresses also point the researcher to many materials available for free online, including the recently adopted, official electronic reporting system for Ohio case law. Ohio Legal Research includes a fully revised chapter on citation that teaches basic citation form using the major citation manuals and, perhaps most significant to the Ohio practitioner, the recently overhauled Ohio Manual of Citations. This book is part of the Legal Research Series, edited by Suzanne E. Rowe, Director of Legal Research and Writing, University of Oregon School of Law.

Fundamentals of Ohio Real Estate Law


Book Description

Fundamentals of Ohio Real Estate Law is written in the author's engaging conversational style. Abstract concepts are supported by clear examples and supplemental materials to help students gain a thorough understanding. Focusing on Ohio real estate principles, the author has designed the text to anticipate students' questions as they arise and answer them along the way. Ohio real estate law is filled with idiosyncrasies. As one of the key states in the westward expansion, Ohio became a testing ground for many different real estate surveying systems, which are still used today. Fundamentals of Ohio Real Estate Law is organized in a logical manner, introducing basic concepts in early chapters and building to more complex topics, while focusing on real-world issues. This text covers the new real estate closing requirements effective in 2015. In addition to the content for an undergraduate real estate law course, this book contains three chapters for the required law prelicensing course for Ohio real estate agents. Teaching materials include test questions, sample syllabus and additional notes and resources. To request, contact [email protected].
