How are state antitrust laws applied to business conduct? What remedies are available under state law and what defenses may be raised? Find out in this comprehensive guide. State Antitrust Law is organized by substantive area (rather than state by state) so that practitioners can see at a glance how a particular problem is handled around the country. You'll learn how recent appellate rulings have applied state law to various types of anti competitive conduct—monopolization, agreements between competitors, restrictive covenants, supplier-customer agreements, business acquisitions and more.
You'll also read about the interaction of state and federal antitrust laws. Because many states follow federal precedents in construing state law, State Antitrust Law includes concise descriptions of federal antitrust rulings that state courts may consider in resolving antitrust cases. In addition, you'll find a time saving appendix of citations to the principal state antitrust laws.

Traditionally, “boilerplate” refers to the standardized, “one size fits all” provisions that generally appear at the end of a contract, including choice of law, notice, arbitration, force majeure and assignments. Lawyers often take these provisions for granted, forgetting that significant business and legal issues lurk within them. Prudent lawyers carefully examine and tailor these provisions to meet the needs of individual transactions.
Negotiating and Drafting Contract Boilerplate book and CD educates lawyers and business professionals on the underlying rationale and importance of boilerplate language. Each chapter tackles a different contractual provision, over twenty in all, and analyzes why it is important, what the key legal and business issues are, what is negotiable and what is not, and how best to draft the provision to suit a particular transaction. This best-selling book will give you a competitive edge—and a new understanding and appreciation of language you've seen countless times.
