Reviews for Criminal Law Handbook, The
9 ratings3 reviews
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Nice book . I understand very well
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5VERY informative law book, outlining pretty much every imaginable question and giving tons of tips on how to successfully deal with the law.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5If you want to really get the law you see on TV's "Law and Order," this is the reference for you. Clear explanations and examples of most topics presented in a logical question and answer format. My only complaint is that, unlike other Nolo books, there was not a deep analysis of a complete witness testimony or a full hearing transcript.
