Assessment of Costs under the CPR (Civil Litigation). This item is unavailable.Assessment of Costs under the CPR (Civil Litigation)

The new edition of this work (originally "Taxation and Assessment of Civil Costs") has been thoroughly updated and extended to include the rules, practice directions, forms and precedents that practitioners will need. Proportionality in costs awards is the most contentious area for practitioners working under the CPR. Solicitors and barristers will find their costs challenged by the judiciary as part of case management. Practitioners will need to ensure that they are adept at predicting costs so they may advise clients and be comfortable assisting the judge appropriately to make the correct costs award. Designed for the solicitor or barrister for whom civil litigation will comprise the majority of the work that they handle, this book is a timely and cost effective solution to the need for a desk-top work that will pay for itself time and time again.
