Documentary Evidence provides a comprehensive guide to the legal obligations of disclosure. It supplies a blend of detailed legal analysis and practical advice, steering practitioners in chronological order through all the issues that may arise, and showing them when and how to take action.
It is a standard work often cited in court judgments, and was once listed by a large City firm as the third most sought-after book in its library after the White Book and The Good Food Guide! This new edition allows readers to interpret the rules in light of the most recent case law.
