Review "Hotel, Restaurant and Travel Law: A Preventive Approach, 7th Edition is for students and practicing professionals in hospitality, travel and tourism as well as specialized paralegal work. It addresses many legal issues that occur in the hospitality, travel and casino industries today. The emphasis is on the prevention of potential legal violations by identifying specific actions and precautions necessary to avoid in order to minimize the number of lawsuits. This edition's case method approach is retained and recognized as a helpful approach to learning the often-complicated discipline of law. The book presents relevant cases and case discussions in which hospitality establishments were sued, as well as what legal precedents were cited."--BOOK JACKET.
