The Judges’ Book
"This book is a must-have for any litigator’s library… Counsel will find answers quickly, and with plenty of authority to cite, no matter on which side of the aisle they stand... Its real value, however, comes from the fact that nearly every Common Pleas Court judge in the commonwealth uses the book.”
– The Philadelphia Bar Reporter
