This introductory course examines the legal organizations most often used by businesses in the United States, with an emphasis on corporations, and the laws governing these organizations. It also provides a foundation for advanced business-law courses, such as Mergers and Acquisitions and Securities Regulation. The goal of this course is to help you develop a basic understanding of the theory, doctrine, and practice of business law, and, ultimately, to help you further develop the analytical and professional skills necessary to a practicing attorney.
