Homework #1

No unread replies.No replies.

Don’t make this assignment more difficult than it actually is. Under “Announcement” , entitled “One Thing …”, there are two articles. For each article, summararize the article with one paragraph. The paragraphs should be 250 words, or less.

Also, please provide a a third paragraph. The third paraph should summarize how the articles will shape your “decision making” as a manager, a business ower, or an individual with dealing with a personal legal issue. The paragraph should answer, “what are you looking for in attorney”. It should answer how you will “manage” that relationship to avoid unnecessary loss of time and cost.

There is no “one” right answer for the third paragraph. However, it should make sense for what you are dealing with and looking for in an attorney. It should show that you understand what the two articles are about.

You are the “manager”. Remain professional, but poignant. You, your company, or your business are paying the cost for attorney fees. This paragraph should also be 250 words, or lesss.

One Thing ….

No unread replies.No replies.

As business professionals and future business professionals, you will read many business related books over the course of your career. For example, “Good to Great”, “80/20 Principal” and “Habit” are three of my favorites.

“ONE Thing: The Surprisingly Simple Truth Behind Extraordinary Results” is a recent New York Times Best Seller. In sum, the book describes “the value of simplifying one’s workload by focusing on the one most important task in any given project”.

Why is this significant to Business Law 308? This course covers topics that I learned over three years in law school, a bar exam, and 14+ years of legal service. Practically, I don’t believe we can do the various subjects and topics justice in a 12-week course.

However, you should leave the course being familiar with key legal terms and concepts that business professionals address frequently. The “one thing” I would like you to get out of this course is that the act of hiring and working with an attorney is a “relationship”.

Every business will need an attorney. Like most relationships that you can’t avoid, it has to be managed.

I will attach two articles that I believe summarizes “the good and the bad” with the relationship. The articles also cover areas in the relationship that will need the most attention and management.

The articles will be a homework assignment at some point during the semester. I will give you advanced notice.

1) Mickey has never liked Nuckey so he decides to play a practical joke on him by pretending to sell him his home in the Cayman Islands. He tells Torrio that he has no intention of selling Nuckey the home. Mickey approaches Nuckey in a bar where Nuckey is clearly intoxicated. The home is assessed at $10 million but he offers Nuckey the home for $50,000. He winks and smiles at Nuckey and Nuckey accepts and the two shake hands. Nuckey quits his job at Replay Baseball and moves to the Cayman Islands where Mickey informs him that he never had any intention of selling him the home. Nuckey is moving furniture and trimming the hedges at the time. Of course, Mickey never mentioned that he owned a second home in the Cyman Islands that was recently destroyed in a hurricane.

2) Nuckey decides that he will build a new home in Massachusetts with a large Jacuzzi. He compiles specifications for the construction of the home and sends it to several general contractors so they may provide bids/quotations. Part of the general contract includes a large plumbing sub contract. Boardwalk Constructions submits a bid to Nuckey for $20 million to serve as the general contractor. As part of its general bid, Boardwalk Construction factored $1 million for plumbing based upon a sub bid submitted by Atlantic Plumbing. There were two other bids for the plumbing work. Boardwalk Construction and Atlantic Plumbing have a falling out and Atlantic Plumbing no longer wants to work on the project. The two other bids were for $10 million each respectively.

There is no written contract, but the two have orally agreed that Boardwalk will renovate Capone’s garage for $75,000. The two have agreed that construction is to be completed whithin one month. Two weeks later, Boardwalk approaches Capone and complains that the cost of nails has increased by 40% and that cold wheather has slowed the construction project. Boardwalk and Capone agree to increase the contract by $5,000 and to extend the completion date by three weeks. Each party agrees in writing to this change. Upon completion of the project, Boardwalk sends Capone a bill for $80,000.
