Litigation By The Numbers® - Fourth Edition ("The essential up-to-date California civil litigation handbook") by Julie A. Goren, Esq. current edition revised as of January 1, 2010   (Includes Urgency Revisions and E-Discovery!)    We now  offer two California-specific, up-to-date, and affordable state court civil litigation books!     Litigation By The Numbers®-Fourth Edition ("LBTN"), updated every January and July, is a looseleaf with more than 400 pages devoted solely to the intricacies of California civil litigation procedure.  As it takes the reader through the life of a California superior court civil lawsuit, it focuses on the nuts and bolts of preparing, filing, and serving documents in accordance with the many applicable codes and rules (e.g., you need to comply with at least 11 separate codes and rules to prepare, file, and serve a motion to compel further interrogatory responses).  It contains a tremendous amount of information on the numerous deadlines to calendar, quick-reference tables showing discovery deadlines, motion deadlines, and page limitations, and warnings regarding traps for the unwary.  California Civil Litigation and Discovery (the "Substantive Companion"), now in its Third Edition (as of January 2010), is a coil bound book of approximately 230 pages.  Initially intended to be used as a text in conjunction with LBTN in paralegal civil litigation courses, it takes a much more in depth approach to civil litigation, referring to LBTN for up-to-date information on format and filing and service deadlines.  Several paralegal and law schools have adopted both books for their civil litigation courses.  (See the latest list here.)  In addition, however, the Substantive Companion has become quite popular with our entire audience, particularly law firms and law libraries.  The new section on electronic discovery or e-discovery added in January 2010 is already getting rave reviews.    For more information on what the books contain, how they differ, and how they compliment each other, click here to view excerpts of both books.   Our customers say it best!  Click here to read testimonials.  Our customers include civil litigation instructors, new and experienced lawyers, paralegals, legal secretaries, law students, paralegal students, legal secretary students, self-represented individuals, and public law librarians.  Click here to see who uses our books.      Regular retail prices for separate purchases:  Litigation By The Numbers® - Fourth Edition - $130.00 plus tax and shipping; Update Service - $80.00 plus tax; California Civil Litigation and Discovery - $70.00 plus tax and shipping.  We offer discounts on combined purchases (see Options #1-3 on the "Buy Now" page for details), and we offer students discounts on purchases of required or recommended texts.     BUY NOW -  We offer a 100% money back guaranty.
