Round Hall Nutshells is a series of books presenting the essentials of the law in clear, straightforward language. Designed with the busy student in mind, the Nutshell is perfect for exam preparation, with brief, clear explanations of key exam topics throughout.

This new edition of Company Law provides the student and practitioner with an up to date and accessible overview of Irish company law and will be invaluable to students preparing for university and professional exams in law and accountancy, and busy practitioners, and company directors and officers and their advisers. The book follows major legislative change in the Companies Act 2014 and the Companies Accounting legislation 2016 and 2017.

The new Companies Act 2014, operative July 2015, repeals and replaces all previous companies legislation and introduces new company types. New legislation in 2016 and 2017 changes the law governing company accounts and auditing, including changes to the public reporting requirements of unlimited companies and the rules regarding the obligation to have certain companies accounts audited, as well as new requirements relating to the qualification and supervision of auditors. Case law developments since the last edition developed the law relating to restriction and disqualification of directors; reckless trading and personal liability of directors and officers.
