Publisher's Summary

In Contract Law, we examine the black letter rules of contract law most commonly tested on the MBE and in law school. By combining a simple approach to legal learning with the innovative appeal of an audio study aid, Contract Law provides you with a concise overview of the subject matter in a way that makes it easy to learn, understand, and memorize. Contract Law also includes numerous hypothetical examples and analyses to help you apply the rules of law to any given fact patterns.

Key topics include:

• Applicable law (common law versus UCC)
• Contract formation (offer and acceptance, consideration, modification)
• Offers (advertisements, termination of offers, irrevocable offers)
• The mailbox rule
• Statute of frauds
• Defenses to contract formation (illegality, lack of capacity, duress, unconscionability, misrepresentation, mistake)
• Parol evidence rule
• Warranties
• Material breach rule under the common law
• Perfect tender rule under the UCC
• Anticipatory repudiation
• Discharge of duties (rescission, release, accord and satisfaction)
• Third party involvement (third party beneficiaries, assignments, delegation, novation)

PLEASE! label the chapters!

the content is great but please add some kind of guide to print or LABEL THE CHAPTER TITLES for audible or both! I was hoping to use this as a supplement to my class to get extra info in the car on the way from work to school but without chapter titles, I don't have the time to scroll through.

Chapter Titles

Please update the chapters to have actual titles. Currently, I am writing down each one so I can back to the lesson when studying.

Sound concise contracts review

Rafi Nemes does a good job reviewing contract law concisely. His diction is clear and measured. It is even keeled and well paced, not too fast nor too slow. A brief review cannot touch on all legal nuances, but the content of the course appears to be sound. The transition between ideas is direct and fairly smooth. This review is briefer than other audio products available. I used it for CLE (continuing legal ed), though it is designed for law students and bar review. I recommend this item for students, lawyers, and anyone interested in learning about the common law of contracts in the U.S.

Relevant

Good pace. Clear annunciation. Would recommend to fellow 1L students who are studying for exams.

Ideal Supplement for L-1!

IUsed this resource in studying L-1 . Phenomenal insight and an attentive authors 's voice!

good overview

information given is more general than in depth, but it is a nice refresher. Definitely need an additional sources for defenses against contract formation and breach, especially mistake.

Great next step for non legal professionals

If you have some experience with contract law and want to gain a better understanding such as in engineering or construction, this is a great option.

The principles are clearly explained, simple examples are used and the narrator has a tone that keeps you engaged throughout.

Great review for finals

Due to Covid I had to take a remote contracts class. It was very difficult to get the full information out of the class. This audiobook on repeat in my car gave me all the information I needed to get a great grade on the final.

Please ask Rafi to do more subject areas.

He is clearly a gifted lawyer who understands the concepts . His outlines are quickly distinguishable from the other law outlines on audible by people who are merely reading words on a page, mispronouncing the words and unable to convey the meaning. Rafi ought to do evidence wills and trusts and family law.

another great one

I really appreciate have textbooks on audio it helps me learn while working keep them coming

it's not clear but this is American contract law

any UK students do not buy!! I made this mistake and regret it now as I didn't use the points to buy but my own money. now I'm stuck with a book that's pretty useless to me.

Excellent but not UK

Much, if not all of the content demonstrated in this book mirrors UK. I found it most useful as a law student in the UK 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿
