Series: A Practical Approach

Trusted by generations of students and litigators, A Practical Approach to Civil Procedure is a classic text which guides you through the maze of procedural requirements utilized by the civil courts. Written by an expert in the field, and co-editor of Blackstone's Civil Practice, this book is unrivalled in its detail of the various stages of a civil claim, making it essential reading for students and newly qualified litigators alike.

Taking a thoroughly practical focus throughout, the book charts the progress of a typical civil litigation claim, from funding litigation and issuing and serving proceedings, through to trial, enforcement, and appeal. Full coverage of alternative dispute resolution is also included. Relevant sample documentation is featured throughout and introduces the reader to the forms and documents which will be encountered in practice, while key point summaries featured at the end of chapters highlight the essential points covered.

Reviews for A Practical Approach to Civil Procedure

A Practical Approach to Civil Procedure should be a text which is kept close to hand. It quickly explains most of the problems a commercial or civil litigator will come across on a day to day basis. * Student Law Journal, on a previous edition * An excellent and comprehensive text which serves extremely well as an explanatory and practical aid to understanding and using the Civil Procedure Rules. Most textbooks in this area are not anywhere near as detailed, or as clear and effective. * Dragan Plavsic, Senior Lecturer, Birmingham City University *
