The law regulating civil costs has undergone a transformation over the past 10 years following the introduction of the CPR and the abolition of legal aid for most areas of civil litigation. The result is a complex regime of primary and secondary legislation, common law and professional conduct rules.

Civil Costs: Law and Practice is an authoritative and comprehensive new work covering all aspects of civil costs coupled with practical applications, detailed references and precedents. The work includes the text of relevant statutes, rules and cases, as well as references to many authorities difficult to find elsewhere. The result is a valuable reference work which provides a one-stop-shop for the law governing civil costs.

Civil Costs: Law and Practice is essential reading for all civil litigators (especially costs lawyers), costs draftsmen, solicitors with management responsibilities and the judiciary.

APIL Guide to Fatal AccidentsGordon Exall, Barrister, Zenith Chamber, Leeds

Fatal accidents present the lawyer with a set of problems distinct from those of non-fatal personal injury claims. In particular, who does the law categorise as a dependant and how do you calculate the claim for dependency?

APIL Guide to Fatal Accidents, now in its second edition, provides practical advice on how to run a case involving a fatal accident and how to secure maximum awards for the family, friends and estate of the deceased.

This edition includes new chapters dealing with multipliers and damages in anticipation of death, and also offers advice on dealing with the coroners’ court.
