Details

This indispensable work gives you quick, manageable, and affordable access to precedents that are most likely to be used on a day-to-day basis.

The precedents are organised into sections by area of practice. Each section starts with commentary, explaining the context for the subsequent precedents. The precedents are reproduced as separate files on the FREE CD-ROM which accompanies the book. This enables practitioners to customise them swiftly and as needed.

The second edition features:

a new section on Regulation and Client Care
fully updated precedents, taking account of the latest developments
Lasting Powers of Attorney - a step-by-step guide to designing your first LPA.

The fully updated second edition contains many new precedents.

The Precedent Library for the General Practitioner offers a cost-effective alternative to the often expensive, vast online libraries of precedents that you might never make full use of.

"It is a necessity for every solicitor and no doubt cheaper than using an expensive library of precedents online...so it will make daily life in your legal practice that little bit easier."

Phillip Taylor, Barrister, Richmond Green Chambers

"The precedents range from good to excellence and provide a very good starting point for a general practitioner...For many lawyers Precedent Library for the General Practitioner is an extremely welcome text. It covers many of the main precedents and, given its price and the free CD-ROM (which is a fantastic addition), should be part of a practitioner's library."
