内容説明

This book sets out and analyses the key skills that a lawyer needs to handle a case effectively. Written in a practical and readable style, A Practical Approach to Effective Litigation addresses the skills required to deal with clients, write legal documents, and present a case in court. The text demonstrates how to analyse a case, how to use law effectively, and how to develop persuasive arguments. Based on the popular A Practical Approach to Legal Advice and Drafting, this sixth edition has been radically rewritten to take into account the many changes to the way barristers and solicitors work. Lawyers now operate in an increasingly complex environment, faced with challenges in funding litigation and the growing international dimension in litigation. The book addresses how legal professional skills can be developed and used effectively within this rapidly changing context. A Practical Approach to Effective Litigation fuses professional skills and techniques with knowledge of substantive law to show how a sound knowledge of legal principle can be used to get results for a real client in a real case. Now expanded to include advice on developing your practice, it will be essential for anyone starting work in legal practice, or training to be a barrister or solicitor.
