Anyone practising in the civil courts of England and Wales needs a thorough grasp of the principles of civil procedure and the rules of practice as applied by the courts. Designed to cover points that are likely to arise in day-to-day practice, A Practical Approach to Civil Procedure provides a comprehensive and easily digestible commentary on all the major areas of civil procedure. It will be of particular interest to students on the Legal Practice Course and the Bar Vocational Course, as well as to practitioners who are looking for a clear exposition of the principles relating to the applications they make in the course of litigation. This new edition has been fully revised and updated to incorporate all changes in the law and offer topical examples for the reader. Written by an authoritative and highly respected figure in the field, A Practical Approach to Civil Procedure features an improved page layout, with key point summaries, practical checklists and examples drawn from a range of different types of practice.
