Barclays Guide to Law for the Small Business

This book aims to help the new businessman or businesswoman come to terms with bank loans, leases, mortgages, insurance, guarantess, hiring staff and engaging contractors. Much of the law relating to business activities is complex and jargon-filled. This book does not seek to replace the need for professional advice, but to help the business person to deal with mundane legal matters and to have a broad knowledge of the pertinent law. The book aims to provide clear definitions of important legal terms and concepts, and contains a list of names and addresses that may be useful in obtaining further information and advice.
