This is a great book! Being a young, modern and relatively “hip” married woman (one who now co-ownes a business with her husband), I decided it was time to educate myself about all the legal stuff I’d been ignoring for years. I was especially intrigued by the author’s approach to the legal aspects of marriage/children, property and taxes. These were topics I would not typically view in a “legal” light (hey, my husband handles the legal stuff), and I would certainly never have considered myself at legal risk. Reading this book really opened my eyes about where I stand as far as the law is concerned - Whaddyaknow, I’m considered a responsible, accountable adult! While this may seem like a no-brainer, the stories and information in this book really brought it home that I had better step up and take responsibility for myself. Thanks to this book I now have a clear understanding of the potential legal and financial hazards to which I may be exposed, and I also have the tools to avoid those dangers and make sound decisions that will protect my family from legal and/or financial peril. This is a truly informative and helpful book.
Marilyn Barrett has written a book that covers all the major legal areas for today’s women. To function in today’s world we must educate ourselves and we must know how to get the appropriate help. In a well written, easy to understand book, Ms. Barrett covers areas of interest for women from all walks of life: setting up your own business, choosing appropriate lawyers, understanding legal documents, prenuptial agreements, protecting your children, and divorce. I was delighted by the precision and focus of this book and would highly recommend it.
