LEGAL RESEARCH: REAL ESTATE LAW (1) (LWR 120)
Professor Michael McCarthy
This course presents
an in-depth review of practical research skills reinforcing the importance
of knowing how to find and interpret statutes, administrative regulations,
cases, and secondary sources, including practice materials (e.g., forms,
pleadings, court rules). The course will help students refine research
skills, learn shortcuts, and develop cost-effective and efficient research
strategies for real estate law related projects. Class sessions integrate
the use of print resources with internet and subscription online services
through which students will learn more sophisticated and responsible
search practices. This course assumes a basic understanding of real estate
law and vocabulary.
Prerequisite: Real Estate Transactions &
Finance
