Description
Corporate Counsel Guides: Practice Basics Steven L Lovett ISBN 9781614388289
Rather than operating an independent practice or working within a law firm where legal services are the core business, corporate lawyers serve as operational and strategic resources inside an organization where the law supports broader business objectives. Client interaction is ongoing rather than event-driven, wide-ranging in scope, and always aligned with a primary goal: advancing the company’s business. Success in this distinct form of legal practice requires a solid understanding of the fundamentals that define the in-house counsel role.
Corporate Counsel Guides: Practice Basics is designed to clarify those foundations by identifying, developing, and exploring strategies for transitioning into and thriving in this unique area of law. Key topics include:
-
Defining the in-house counsel role
-
Core professional foundations
-
Starting your position effectively
-
Understanding the legal department’s function
-
Common areas of practice
-
Risk management tools and resources
This book is intended as both an introduction and a long-term framework for building a successful in-house career and strong client relationships. Practice Basics serves as a concise yet rigorous primer for lawyers practicing as general counsel.
As part of ABA Publishing’s Corporate Counsel Guides series, this title is aimed at new in-house lawyers adjusting to the role of a business generalist—one who must be prepared to address a wide variety of legal issues. These guides are not exhaustive treatises, but practical, accessible resources that provide a comprehensive overview, highlight the most common and urgent concerns, and direct readers to additional sources when deeper knowledge is needed.

Rental returns: free at semester's end, refundable within 30 days
Print a prepaid return label from your account whenever you have finished with the book, and drop it at the carrier listed on the label. Returning it by your semester return date, or after it is already overdue, is free with no deduction. Returning it early and shipping it back within 30 days of your order date gets you a refund minus a 15% restocking fee and the label cost. After 30 days, an early return is free, with no refund.
-
Purchase returns: 15% restocking fee

Shipping costs calculated at checkout
Real-time rates are quoted at checkout based on your address and the books in your cart. Returning your book by your semester date is always free; an early return deducts the restocking fee and label cost from your refund instead.
Rental Terms
Return by May 25, 2027 for Spring 2027 rentals.
- Late Fees
- Books returned after the semester deadline accrue a weekly late fee of about 10% of the book's Brand New price, for each copy that is overdue. The rent you have already paid counts toward the book's replacement value (its Brand New price), so late fees stop once your rent plus late fees reach it. That replacement value is the most a rental can ever cost you. We email a reminder 48 hours before any charge, and any late fees are charged to the payment method you save at checkout.
- Damage Fees
- Books returned damaged beyond normal classroom wear may be assessed a damage fee, capped at the book's replacement value (its Brand New price). Any damage fees are charged to the payment method you save at checkout after we inspect the returned book.
- Return Shipping
- Returning your book is free with no deduction if it reaches us by your semester return date, or after it's already overdue. Print a prepaid label (USPS or UPS, whichever is cheaper for your package) from your account's My Rentals page. Returning it early and shipping it back within 30 days of your order date gets you a refund minus a 15% restocking fee and the label cost. After 30 days, an early return is free, with no refund.
- 30-Day Refund Window
- Changed your mind? Cancel before your book ships and it’s free: open the order under My Account → Orders and click Cancel next to the book. Once it has shipped, you can return a rental for a refund from My Account → My Rentals. To qualify, the book must be shipped back within 30 days of your order date. We refund the rental price minus a 15% restocking fee and the return label cost, released once we receive your book. Shipping is non-refundable. A rental shipped back after 30 days is a regular end-of-semester return, with no refund.
