According to a 2007 "Litigation Trends Survey”:
- Of the smallest companies surveyed, 17% had at least one lawsuit where $20 million or more was claimed
- Among mid-sized companies, 98% had from one to twenty $20 million lawsuits
Lawsuits destroy companies and careers--but with a little forethought, they CAN be prevented. Attorney Michael Trachtman provides a lively and clear guide to the four most common legal mistakes made by business owners, executives, and employees--errors that can lead to loss of money, creative capital...or worse. Each chapter examines one of the mistakes through the dramatic story of a fictional lawsuit, along with tangible advice on avoiding the problem. Trachtman even reveals how to take advantage of a competitor’s mistakes and turn their unmanaged risks into opportunities.
