"an extremely practical guide to the orders available ... It is concise without being too skeletal; it possesses commentary that does not clutter and affect one's ability to find practical guidance on a particular point quickly ... This is exactly the sort of book that is likely to prove a very useful companion at court"
Family Law

"an excellent vade mecum for the new practitioner in the field"
