the essential facts, issue, decision, and rationale for
each case in a clear, concise manner. They
assist students with identifying and understanding
the key takeaways from the cases they read in
their casebooks.

best-written case briefs – they are also the most
comprehensive. Every concurring and dissenting
opinion is briefed. Plus the thorough Analysis section
gives students the contextual background that ties
each case to the broader concepts being developed
in their casebooks.
Best of all, High Court Case Summaries are directly
keyed to the most widely used casebooks. Students
can save time, gain a competitive edge, and be
confident in their grasp of the issues.
“ Without this book [High

CASE BRIEFS
LEGALINES
• Titles track the casebook, so the topics
discussed and the briefs provided follow
the order they are presented in the
casebook.
• A table of cases helps students quickly
find the cases they are looking for.
• The outline format reveals how all the
cases relate to each other.
The only series that gives students both case briefs
and a review of blackletter law.
Legalines provide authoritative, detailed briefs of every
major case, with clear explanations of the facts and
issues, the court’s holding and reasoning, plus any
significant concurrences and dissents.
Each Legaline features expert commentary that
explains the significance of each case and analyzes its
relationship to the other cases in the casebook.
Legalines are perfect for class preparation. A table of
cases indicates where to find principal cases as well
as incidental cases so students can find what they
need quickly. The outline format reveals how all the
cases relate to each other.
“ ... since the actual cases in the
casebook are so long, it’s very
helpful to have a short brief

this study aid [Legalines

is also tremendously helpful.”

Black Letter Outlines reveal the
Black Letter Law
• Can be used as both a study aid when
prepping for class and as a review when
preparing for an examination
Black Letter Outlines succinctly state legal rules
and exceptions, and also provide citations to the
major texts, so students can study individual points
of law in depth.
• Offers both a comprehensive outline
and a capsule summary for review
• Helps students prepare for final exams
with true/false, multiple choice, and
essay review questions
“What a difference it made
Black Letter Outlines are written by recognized
national authorities to help students identify and
understand the basic principles and issues of law.
Black Letter Outlines feature a highly detailed capsule
summary – an abbreviated review of all the key
concepts – and a table of contents. Students can use
both when creating their own review outlines, or as a
quick and comprehensive review before finals.
The review questions are another great way to prepare
for final exams. The true/false, multiple choice, and
essay questions ready students for any kind of exam
situation. Plus, the answer key clearly explains why
the selected answer is correct, so students are sure to
understand the reasoning.

provide the accurate and essential information
that students need to excel in class. Nutshells are
thoroughly researched and written by experts – many

ACING SERIES
An innovative checklist approach
to evaluating legal issues
• Innovative checklist format leads
students through the questions they
need to ask to fully evaluate the subject
The Acing Series titles feature an innovative method
of content organization, utilizing a checklist format
that leads students through the questions they need
to ask to fully evaluate the legal problem they are
trying to solve.
• Offers a systematic approach to
problem solving that is not found in
other study aids
Many other study aids provide sample problems for
students to work on, but none provide the type of
systematic approach to problem solving that can be
found in the Acing Series. The Acing Series titles pull
together the different issues, presenting a clear guide
to legal analysis that students can draw upon when
writing their exams.

EXAM PRO SERIES
• Increase understanding of a topic
and build exam skills
• Choose from essay titles or objective
testing titles
• Practice exams with fact patterns simulate
real exam situations
• Model answers (essays) and answer keys
(objective) provide detailed explanations
Take exams like a pro
Students can take final exams with confidence – by
preparing with the Exam Pro Series. Designed to help
them prepare for finals and tackle any type of exam
situation, Exam Pro now offers two sets of books
within the series, both Multiple Choice and Essay
Exams. Both contain sample exams with detailed
answers that help students understand the correct
answer while building exam skills.
Each Exam Pro title has been prepared by a leading
law professor recognized as an expert in that title’s
area of law. Most Exam Pro exams present detailed
fact patterns, then pose questions, simulating real
exam situations. The detailed answer keys not only
provide the correct answer, but also explain why it
is the best option. Students will also learn to identify
“red herring” answers designed to lure them toward
incorrect responses.
