Consumer Law
Consumer law is especially important, since in many cases you can get what you want without using a lawyer. Just one example: if you buy something sold door to door, you have a three-day “cooling off period” (which the salesmen will not be anxious to point out to you) during which you have a complete right to return the product for a full and immediate refund. There are dozens of other important examples involving small print in contracts, warranties, advertising and product performance. Learn them and know them.
