Book Description

Excerpt from Business Law for Business Men: A Reference Book Showing the Laws of California for Daily Use in Business Affairs My experience and observation during a busy life in the practice of law have served to demonstrate to me that much vexatious and expensive controversy, arising from a lack of knowledge of the laws of the State on matters of everyday business, might be avoided, if business men had the means of ascertaining at the moment what their rights and liabilities would be. Men usually go to a lawyer after a controversy has occurred, and seek a lawyers advice, not to keep out, of trouble, but to be extricated from it. The plan of this work is to so arrange and illustrate the laws of California pertaining to ordinary business affairs, and rights and obligations in many relations of life, that a busy man can turn immediately to the page and section and find the information he needs, before assuming a liability himself or attempting to enforce a right against others. A. J.Bledsoe. What Supreme Court Judges Say Judge Walter Van Dyke. About a year before his death, Walter Van Dyke wrote the following letter concerning one of the earlier editions of the book: Judicial Department, Supreme Court, Chambers of Associate Justice Walter Van Dyke. San Francisco. A. J.Bledsoe, Esq., Attorney at Law. Dear Sir: I have received a copy of your book entitled Business Law for Business Men, and you will please accept my thanks for the same. The book contains the code law of the State, conveniently arranged, bearing upon the most important subjects pertaining to business affairs, and cannot fail to be of great service to business men, for whose benefit it appears to have been specially intended, but will also prove to be very convenient and useful to the practicing lawyer.
