Unprecedented is a simple, go-to guide to the many legal issues engulfing the Donald Trump presidency.

Unprecedented is a user's manual for anyone who wants to understand the criminal and constitutional issues related to the Trump administration. The book is a case study of crimes, constitutional violations, and defenses seen through the lens of the Trump White House, from Donald Trump's candidacy in 2016 through the present. In a colourful, engaging, and easy-to-read style, attorney Sara Azari covers the Trump campaign and administration characters who, one by one, are being charged with crimes. Azari explains the crimes, evidence, defenses, and investigations of White House aides and political figures in an understandable, clear way. As a white-collar criminal defense attorney with nearly two decades of experience in federal courts nationwide, Azari's expertise uniquely qualifies her to form legal opinions about the magnitude of the Trump administration's crimes and wrongdoings based on how the law applies to each person and situation. In Unprecedented, Azari applies the law objectively to the actual facts as we know them and analyses each case impartially, regardless of the personality involved. Whether it's Donald Trump or the average person on the street - her legal opinion would be the same based only on that person's conduct under the law. Right now, no publication or person is cutting through the legal jargon to explain plainly, in approachable language, the controversies of the Trump administration. Unprecedented does just that. Readers will take away a depth of understanding that leads to informed opinions and more meaningful discussion about what we read and hear in the news. They can use this unique guide to shatter the mystery surrounding the legal issues that pertain to the current presidency and administration.

Industry Reviews
"This brief yet in-depth book is a gem. Its strength is that first-time author Azari, a lawyer who specializes in white-collar crime, simplifies the lengthy, massively detailed, and documented report, breaking it down into an easy-to-read explanation from a nonpartisan viewpoint. . . . Perfect for anyone seeking an authoritative understanding of the Mueller investigation from a dispassionate source."-Kirkus Reviews
"As a lawyer and journalist, it is always a challenge to explain complicated legal analyses so that people can get what matters most and why. And these days, citizens really need to know the facts and implications, free from spin. When it comes to understanding the charges rendered by the special counsel in the Russian interference probe, specifically the merits and arguments for and against it, this book is an easy read that tells you everything you need to know. Sara Azari has made a complicated matter into something digestible and understandable."-Chris Cuomo, anchor for CNN
"Sara Azari knows of what she writes. I absolutely enjoyed reading this book."-Larry King


"The Mueller investigation was the most important investigation of our lifetime but was also challenging for the public to understand, with charges brought against dozens of individuals and companies. Sara Azari does a great job of cutting through all this detail and making complex legal documents easy to understand."-Renato Mariotti, former federal prosecutor, legal analyst for CNN, and legal affairs columnist for Politico
"I'm apolitical. And I investigated for both Special Counsel Robert Fiske and Independent Counsel Ken Starr in the Whitewater investigation of the Clintons. But I could not put this book down. It's engaging, engrossing, and educational. No matter your political leanings, this is a must-read. It lays out and breaks down the legal issues involved in the Russian influence investigation in simple, straightforward language that's easy for everyone to understand. Azari has penned an important work that every U.S. citizen should read."-Jim Clemente, retired FBI supervisory special agent and profiler
"The Special counsel Robert Mueller's investigation was convoluted and daunting to follow, even for lawyers. Sara Azari's experience as a defense attorney and deft hand at explaining the federal criminal world makes her an ideal guide to these historic prosecutions."-Ken White, former federal prosecutor and host of KCRW's All The President's Lawyers
"Sara Azari cuts through the political noise to simplify the complexities of the Mueller Report, the main players involved, and what it all means legally. Unprecedented serves as an excellent guide for every American to easily understand the extent and impact of the assault on the rule of law and constitutional norms perpetrated by Trump and his associates."-Tara Setmayer, news political contributor for CNN and ABC, former GOP communications director, board director for Stand Up Republic, and host of Honestly Speaking with Tara Setmayer podcast
"Sara Azari's love and passion for the law and this nation are evident throughout the pages of her piece-all-the-facts-together-so-the-people-shall-know book. I applaud her for the courage it took to write it."-Rolonda Watts, journalist, author, actor, podcaster, and talk show host
"Entertaining, well organized, and well researched, Sara's book will become a historical guide for generations to come. We are indeed living in 'unprecedented' times-which Sara captures perfectly. Never could I have imagined that covering true crime would begin on the steps of the White House. But who would have? A must-read!"-Joey Jackson, legal analyst for CNN and HLN
"Unprecedented does an excellent job of documenting the unprecedented and unpresidential crimes of those associated with the Trump administration. Sara Azari explains the crimes, conspiracies, and convictions in a way that is accessible to the general public."-John Heilman, professor at Southwestern Law School
