Business and Commercial Law and Practice applies a practical
approach to a range of business and commercial topics. It discusses key topics
relating to directors and shareholders of companies, including service
contracts, removal of directors and minority protection of shareholders.
Ordinary and limited liability partnerships are also reviewed, including the
content of partnership agreements.
A number of advanced business taxation topics are dealt with
including loss reliefs and exemptions and capital allowances.
Students are introduced to the buying and selling of
businesses, joint venture agreements, issues relating to contracts for goods
and services and the differences between distribution and agency agreements.
Next, the interpretation of business accounts, including
liquidity ratios, is explained together with a final chapter discussing
business insolvency.
The book is supported by many activities and links to
practice which reflect the authors' wide-ranging experience in business and
commercial practice.
Business and Commercial Law and Practice is the recommended
textbook for the CILEX Professional Stage Business and Commercial Law and
Practice module, but it will also provide invaluable guidance for law students
and other practitioners who are seeking to develop and update their practical
and commercial skills in this area.
