The American Legal System: An Overview & Discussion of Current Topics   

Has someone told you that you would make a great lawyer and you take it as a compliment (you should)?

Would you actually enjoy a lively discussion (debate, argument) of current events with legal implications?

If you answered "yes" to either of these questions, you would benefit from discourse with Attorney Baumann.

 

Almost every discussion of current hot topics has some legal implications that, in a society that emphasizes free speech, need to be discussed, debated, explored. 

 

The course starts out with a discussion of general law including the court system, court procedure, civil vs. criminal law, contracts, constitutional law and injury law. After gaining this knowledge, deeper issues will be brought into play: discriminatory (including sexual) harassment, Roe v Wade, the Patriot Act, the prison system, to name a few. You can also suggest topics of interest to you.
