O’Hare & Browne Civil Litigation covers the entire spectrum of civil litigation in a general and basic way. It provides a step-by-step guide through all stages of a civil action, from funding through to trial, costs, enforcement and appeals.

It is of use to all civil litigation fee earners, barristers practising in civil litigation, trainee solicitors and barristers, and LPC (Legal Practice Course) and BPTC (Bar Professional Training Course) students, trainee solicitors and barristers, and new practitioners.

This book cross-refers to the White Book rather than cover everything the White Book does, it picks out the parts of the Civil Procedure Rules that the authors feel are most in need of additional guidance. It is therefore a complementary text to the White Book, and serves as a feeder to it.

The book is also an excellent refresher text, written in a concise and accessible narrative style, made easily navigable with helpful and frequent subheadings.
