TOP REVIEWS FROM AMERICAN CONTRACT LAW I
This course is an interesting, entertaining, and informative introduction to the prerequisites to contracting. I really enjoyed it and look forward to building on the foundation it provides.
The course was totally taking advantage of the unknown benefit of being 100% online! I could finish it alone, remotely, yet still satisfactorily.
Very descriptive, well formulated and very insightful course. Loved the explanations of doctrines and rules through case laws.
Clear and comprehensive introduction to American Contract Law. Lectures and case laws are engaging, relevant and interesting.
