    Contract Law in Wisconsin Offers Guidance on Drafting Enforceable Agreements, More

    State Bar CLE Books' Contract Law in Wisconsin is an excellent treatise that helps clarify and simplify the basics of contract law. Treating Wisconsin cases and statutes, the book pulls together Wisconsin answers to the fundamental questions of contract law: Is there an enforceable contract? What does the contract mean? Who has contract rights and obligations? Has the contract been performed? What are the remedies?

    Within these larger issues are clear, concise, and comprehensive discussions of such specifics as contract formation; problems in formation; statutes of frauds; interpretation and construction; warranties and disclaimers; modifications and amendments; contract beneficiaries; assignment and delegation; joint and several contracts; conditions; performance, breach, and excused nonperformance; damages, specific performance, and reformation; and rescission and restitution. This valuable book also contains a lengthy, in-depth presentation of useful and practical tips on drafting a contract. It concludes with a new chapter dedicated to electronic transactions.

    Contract Law in Wisconsin is 800+ pages; 2nd ed. 2000 (includes 2004 supplement); $140. The treatise also is available on CD-ROM; $140 (owners of the hardcopy book are entitled to a discount price). For more information or to order, please call the State Bar at (800) 728-7788 or visit www.wisbar.org/books.
