Written by an experienced practitioner, this is the definitive guide to the law of partnership in Ireland. Comprehensive and highly detailed, it includes practitioner-orientated chapters on disputes between partners, litigation by and against partnerships and a commentary on each of the clauses of a typical partnership agreement. Few areas of law are as similar throughout the common law world as partnership law. This is because both the Partnership Act 1980 and the Limited Partnerships Act 1907 are to be found almost unchanged in England & Wales, Scotland, Ireland, Australia, New Zealand, America and Canada. This important book analyses not only Irish, English and Scottish partnership cases, but also the rich vein of partnership cases to be found in other common law jurisdictions, and explains how these cases impact upon Irish law.
