Legal Practice Companion: 2001/2002 (LPC Companions)

Montagu and Weston's Legal Practice Companion is firmly established as the leading source of reference and support for LPC/BVC students, lawyers entering practice and more senior practitioners seeking the most accessible annual update of law and practice. The Companion's widespread popularity
stems from its innovative approach: Content is wide-ranging, setting out the context, general 'feel' and basic concepts of the law and practice. Key procedures are broken down into steps or flowcharts so that they can be easily followed. The law is set out clearly and areas are linked together as
appropriate. New changes and developments are clearly flagged, ensuring that the reader is aware of how the law does and will work. All this is packaged in on convenient volume. This new edition has been completely revised and updated to take account of the latest legislation including: the Capital
Allowances Act 2001, the Criminal Justice and Police Act 2001, the Finance Act 2001, the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000, the Insolvency Act 2000, the Powers of Criminal Courts (Sentencing) Act 2000, the Trustee Act 2000, the Collective Conditional Fee Agreements Regulations 2000, the
Companies Act (Electronic Communications Order 2000, the Consumer Protection (Distance Selling) Regulations 2000 and the Limited Liability Partnership Regulations 2001. The Commonhold and Leasehold Reform Bill, the Homes Bill, the Land Registration Bill and the draft Solicitors' Financial (Scope)
Regulations 2001 are also considered. The Companion is unique in presenting an overview of the effect of these reforms, together with well-established law, all in one volume and is therefore directly relevant to all law students, as well as trainees and more senior practitioners wanting to keep
abreast of new developments.
