Item Description...
Stay Out Of Court And Stay In Ministry is written to help pastors prevent costly and career-ending lawsuits. It sets forth the most common legal claims asserted against religious organizations, and the defenses churches have successfully raised. ... We describe real-life legal claims against churches and analyze the outcomes, pro or con. We focus on the claims most frequently asserted against churches. Some of the trends defy conventional wisdom. For example, there are few suits for clergy malpractice, but many successful suits for slippery sidewalks.

 | An Ounce of Prevention Oct 25, 2006 |
Lawsuits against churches are escalating, as the social constraints against suing clergy break down.
This is the perfect book for pastors and other religious workers who want to avoid lawsuits. The authors are practicing lawyers, writing for non-lawyers. They provide real-life examples of the most common lawsuits, then show how they could have been prevented.
The book is very reasonably priced. It will pay for itself thousands of times over when a single lawsuit is stopped.
