The Accidental Law Librarian

Where can I find the case Simpson v. Satterfield? What are the laws in Nevada on gun ownership? Can you help me apply for a business license? How do I copyright my name? Questions like these make a new law librarian s head spin. The truth is, all librarians are apt to get legal questions, and most struggle to respond. Collection development, too, is tricky if you seldom work with legal publishers. As the law touches more and more of our daily lives while lawyers price their services out of the average person s range, the public increasingly turns to libraries for answers. Where can librarians turn? Okay, that one s easy to Anthony Aycock s The Accidental Law Librarian.

Economic Analysis Of Accident Law

Review “A lucid, up-to-date survey of the economics of accident law.”-Roger Bowles, Economic Journal “[This] is certainly a masterpiece.”-Thomas S. Ulen, Journal of Economic Literature “Steven Shavell is one of the leading practitioners of economic analysis of law; his book is a clear and careful discussion of what we currently know about the economic analysis of accident law.”-David Friedman, Journal of Political Economy “The strength of Shavell’s book is its lucid, structured development and explication of the economic model. It represents the best systematic presentation of the relevance of economic argument for issues of risk allocation…Together [with William M. Landes and Richard A. Posner’s The Economic Structure of Tort Law] they constitute the most comprehensive defense of the economic analysis of tort law currently available, and are strongly recommended accordingly.”-Jules L. Coleman, Yale Law Journal “Steven Shavell…[has] drawn upon [his] previous path-breaking work to issue [one of] the most important books in the law and economics of tort law since the release in 1970 of Guido Calabresi’s The Costs of Accidents…The work is a masterful tribute to the power of economic modelling and the use of optimization techniques…I, for one, was immensely impressed by the richness of the insights that Shavell’s theoretical approach provided into the fundamental issues of tort law…Shavell’s analysis is conducted with intellectual rigor and sophistication.”-John J. Donohue III, Harvard Law Review “For anyone wanting to learn where we stand concerning economic analysis of accident law, Shavell’s book provides an authoritative and fairly comprehensive summary of the state of the art.”-Michelle J. White, Michigan Law Review Product Description “[This] is certainly a masterpiece.”-Thomas S.

Donohue III, Harvard Law Review Accident law, if properly designed, is capable of reducing the incidence of mishaps by making people act more cautiously. Scholarly writing on this branch of law traditionally has been concerned with examining the law for consistency with felt notions of right and duty. Since the 1960s, however, a group of legal scholars and economists have focused on identifying the effects of accident law on peoples behavior. Steven Shavells book is the definitive synthesis of research to date in this new field. From the Inside Flap Accident law, if properly designed, is capable of reducing the incidence of mishaps by making people act more cautiously. Scholarly writing on this branch of law traditionally has been concerned with examining the law for consistency with felt notions of right and duty. Since the l960s, however, a group of legal scholars and economists have focused on identifying the effects of accident law on people’s behavior. Steven Shavell’s book is the definitive synthesis of research to date in this new field.Shavell explains, systematically and rigorously, the major doctrines of accident law and shows how each can be analyzed and evaluated on the basis of models that predict the conduct of “rational” parties in the face of various incentives. Many of the issues he raises have heretofore received little attention, particu

Accidental Justice: The Dilemmas Of Tort Law (Yale Contemporary Law Series)

A woman suffers paralyzing injuries in a car accident but fails in court to prove the other driver’s fault. She loses her case and is left bankrupt as well as maimed. An intoxicated man stumbles in the path of a subway train. He sues the local transit authority and wins a $9 million judgment. Real-life tort (or accident) cases like these inspire outrage against a system that seems frustratingly slow, inequitable, and expensive. In this even-handed and fascinating book, two leading tort experts explain to lay readers the strengths and weaknesses of our tort law system. Peter Bell and Jeffrey O’Connell demystify tort law and bring to life the process of tort litigation. The roots of tort law lie in human suffering, maimed bodies, shattered spirits, and extinguished lives, say the authors. They discuss tort law’s compensatory and deterrent functions; its delays, fortuity, and high transaction costs (mostly in lawyer’s fees); and its role in discouraging harmful-as well as, on occasion, useful-activities. In a discussion of mass toxic tort cases, the authors investigate the ability of the courts to deal adequately with huge suits (related to breast implants or tobacco-related illnesses, for example) that involve massive numbers of claimants. Bell and O’Connell conclude with an objective review of such current reform enactments and proposals as no-fault insurance, caps on damages, and contingency fee reform.

Elevator And Escalator Accident Reconstruction And Litigation, Second Edition

You’re considering the case of a maintenance worker injured while repairing an elevator. Or perhaps it’s an elderly woman hurt on a department store escalator while Christmas shopping with her grandkids. An initial search of the literature has turned up almost nothing useful. Your instinct tells you it’s a good case, but to evaluate it properly, you need this latest addition our litigation series. The key questions are: what caused the accident, and what were the contributory factors? Some accidents have an element of “in the wrong place at the wrong time” about them, and others have an element of disregard for the equipment involved. Sadly, others fall into the category of sheer negligence or incompetence. This book will help you tell the difference. The authors have had the unpleasant task of investigating numerous elevator and escalator accidents. Their expertise will guide you as you make your decision to take or reject the case, and their experience will give you the basic understanding of the issues you need to proceed with confidence. TOPICS INCLUDE Codes, regulations and related subjects–for the U.S., with consideration of Canada and the U.K.Accident statistics and selected incidents The elements of typical elevator accidents The elements of typical escalator accidents Reviewing and understanding maintenance documents Presuit investigation: should a suit be instituted? Legal theories and negligence A glossary and a sample expert report Pleadings–excerpt of a typical complaint Discovery–sample interrogatories, request for production of documents and corporate designee notices Expert opinion: the applicability of Daubert, Khumo and Frye
