Description
"A Practical Approach to Conveyancing" takes a pragmatic, rather than academic, approach to conveyancing. It provides practical solutions to everyday problems encountered by conveyancing practitioners wishing to offer a cost-effective and efficient service. The new larger, more accessible format contains precedent documents, clauses, and forms that provide the blueprint for highly effective procedural structures. Checklists and key point summaries have been added throughout the text to make the style more accessible. Detailed explanations of residential leasehold transactions and the 2004 reforms of the Landlord and Tenant Act 1954 are also provided, as well as a number of practical suggestions to save time and money. A commercial focus is incorporated in the book for those wishing to take a more commercial view of property law, and those on the City LPC. The book has established itself as a core text on the Legal Practice Course for students wishing to have a more applied overview of Property Law and Practice.
It is also essential reading for solicitors, their support staff, trainee solicitors, licensed conveyancers, legal executives and anyone involved or interested in the conveyancing process. Online Resource Centre provides links to more detailed conveyancing topics and useful external sites, and a test bank of multiple choice questions, with feedback, linked directly to the text allowing lecturers to test student understanding and progress.
