Description and Table of Contents
Description
Written to meet the requirements of the Legal Practice Course, this text provides up-to-date coverage of company, partnership, taxation (individual and corporate) and insolvency law. The guide also covers relevant aspects of EU law and special topics such as debenture documents, articles of association, agency and distribution agreements, and associated competition law. This new edition has been fully revised and updated to take into account the changes to taxation regimes. It also reflects the impact of the Enterprise Act 2002 on bankruptcy, insolvency and competition law in the United Kingdom, and includes frequently statutory references enabling students to cross-refer to appropriate primary sources and to use the guide to interpret these sources.
