  • Illustrates how the law operates in practice
  • Gives examples to aid understanding of the more complex and technical areas
  • Offers a short guide to further reading at the end of each chapter
  • Contains a glossary of key terms at the start of the work
New to this Edition:-

  • In the context of constructive trusts.the Supreme Court decision in FHR European Ventures LLP v Cedar Capital Partners LLC, which overrules.Sinclair Investments (UK) Ltd v Versailles Trade Finance Ltd and confirms that the proceeds of bribes and secret commissions accepted by an agent are held on trust for his principal
  • On the illegality defence, the controversial Supreme Court decision in Patel v Mirza, which rejects the traditional rule (set out in Tinsley v Milligan) barring a claimant whose claim was posited on his own illegality in favour of a more flexible approach
  • A range of recent developments in relation to cohabitants' rights in the family home, the grant of injunctive relief and the application of the public benefit requirement as regards charitable trusts
