Business Law I is a broad introduction to the American legal system concentrating on issues related to commerce. The course begins with an overview of the judicial system and a look at the difference between dispute resolution through litigation (court) and alternate methods such as mediation and arbitration. That?s followed by an exposure to the fundamental law of the land, the U.S. Constitution. After a brief look at criminal law the course focuses on the areas of civil law that are most significant to business. These include contracts, torts (non criminal wrongs), warrantees and product liability, employment law and intellectual property (patents and copyrights).

Business Law II continues the broad exposure to the commercial legal system begun in Business Law I. After completing both courses students have been exposed to most of the legal issues encountered during an executive career. Business Law II begins with international law, and then looks at two kinds of business documents, negotiable instruments which transfer money, and contracts that secure credit purchases. Those ideas of financial responsibility lead to consideration of bankruptcy: what happens when a business can't meet its financial obligations. Next we cover agency which describes the conditions under which one person may be responsible for the acts of another. That in turn leads to consideration of employer-employee relations, union activity and labor law. Next we look at starting and expanding the business itself by focusing on forms of legal organization, the sale of securities, and the restraints put on competition by antitrust law.
