In Preventative Law for Business Professionals, Martin Segal reframes everyday commercial interactions as potential legal flashpoints. By treating each contract and transaction as a structured agreement, he shows how to identify and neutralize risks before they escalate into litigation.
Drawing on real court cases and direct judicial commentary, Segal introduces his “anticipatory thinking approach”—a systematic method for crafting enforceable agreements and addressing misunderstandings head-on. Each chapter focuses on common issues in buyer-seller, borrower-lender, and service transactions, revealing hidden liabilities that can derail a deal.
Key insights include:
- Analyzing contractual terms for hidden obligations
- Designing enforceable, clear agreements
- Addressing disputes early to avoid lawsuits
- Learning from landmark legal decisions
Ideal for managers, legal professionals, and executives, this guide delivers practical strategies to prevent costly disputes and build a more secure commercial framework.
