It offers students, teachers and practitioners not only a rigorous academic examination of the subject, but also a practical guide to the complex subject of private international law. Written by an expert team of academics, there is extensive coverage of commercial topics such as the jurisdiction of various courts and their limitations, stays of proceedings and restraining foreign proceedings, the recognition and enforcement of judgments, the law of obligations with respect to contractual and non-contractual obligations. There are also sections on the various aspects of family law in private international law, and the law of property, including the transfer of property, administration of estates, succession and trusts.

Reviews for Cheshire, North & Fawcett: Private International Law

This very well-established book needs no introduction. With contributions from an expanded team of private international law experts, the text covers almost all aspects of English private international law. Especially because it is the last edition on the English position immediately prior to Brexit, this latest edition is a most welcome product. ... It is an understatement to say that this is a huge research resource but being a huge research resource is also why it is so valuable to everyone. * Look Chan Ho, International Company and Commercial Law Review *
