Description

“Problem Analysis Prompts Write down the problem or problems you see in the prompt. What legal threats are present to your organization?.” The prompts lay out a scenario in which you’ll have to find potential liabilities and solutions to those liabilities.

For each section of the textbook, choose the problem that you’re most interested in. Read it thoroughly. Then work through the following process:

1. Look in your notes and book to review concepts related to the case. Make sure you understand them completely before continuing.

2. Write down the problem or problems you see in the prompt. What legal threats are present to your organization? Think broadly here—there may be secondary problems in addition to those that are obvious to you.

3. Find examples in which other organizations found themselves in similar situations. You should use both Westlaw and Google to do so. Write down those examples that seem closely related and ask:

a. What problem did they face, and how is it similar and different from your own? b. What solutions did they attempt?

c. What was the outcome?

4. Based on your own knowledge and the examples you found, come up with a list of all the potential responses you can come up with to your problem.

5. Then, consider the pros and cons of those options.

6. Identify which option you think is the best, and clearly identify both

a. Why you think it’s best, and

b. What the limitations/drawbacks to the option are.

7. Finally, write up your analysis as if you’re writing to your boss. Use simple language but be thorough in your explanation. You

must include

a. The problems you’ve identified

b. The potential actions you see

c. Examples of how other organizations reacted to similar problems

d. Your recommended course of action, the reasoning behind your recommendation, and its drawbacks

Your analysis should be between three and five full double-spaced pages long (headers do not count toward page count). Number your pages and use Times New Roman 12-point or a similar font. Use conversational language. While you should provide in-text citations, you must include a works cited at the end. For full points, your analysis must include at least five examples of similar situations.
