Description

Louisiana Law of Contracts and Quasi-Contracts: A Comparative Civil Law Perspective, A Treatise Alain A. Levasseur ISBN 9781531027988

This book follows the traditional civilian doctrinal approach in its treatment of the substantive law of Contracts and Quasi-Contracts, presenting these areas of law as an integrated and interrelated system. The treatise carefully identifies and explains the fundamental and controlling concepts by clarifying their scope of application and highlighting the legal characteristics that define and distinguish them. Through this structured approach, complex doctrines are made accessible and analytically precise.

Where appropriate, the authors enrich their discussion through the rigorous use of civil law methodology and legal reasoning. This approach is particularly evident in the chapters addressing Cause, Detrimental Reliance, Damages, Performance, Management of Affairs, and Enrichment Without Cause, where doctrinal analysis is combined with thoughtful interpretation of the Civil Code.

Louisiana Law of Contracts and Quasi-Contracts, A Treatise provides essential guidance for interpreting and applying the core concepts of Louisiana’s Civil Code. It serves as a practical and scholarly resource for members of the legal profession confronting complex issues in the law of obligations, contracts, and quasi-contracts.

This treatise is designed to function as a complementary resource to Louisiana Law of Obligations in General, A Treatise and Louisiana Law of Obligations: A Methodological and Comparative Perspective, offering readers a cohesive and comprehensive understanding of Louisiana obligations law.
