Forms & Precedents
Atkin's Court Forms is the United Kingdom's only encyclopaedia of Civil Litigation Forms, Precedents of Pleadings and Procedure. With over 130 titles, this work provides practitioners with a truly unrivalled collection of the main procedural documents required in every civil proceeding before the courts and judicial tribunals of England and Wales.
Authoritative and comprehensive, Atkin's Court Forms is very practical in its approach. Contributed by leading authorities in their field, solicitors, barristers, academics and members of the judiciary, each title contains expert commentary to guide you through general and specialist court procedures. Procedural tables act as handy checklists for the experienced practitioners, or step-by-step guides for the less qualified. A vast selection of forms and precedents of pleadings drafted in a clear and modern style take you through all stages of proceedings from pre-action through to post judgment. The forms and precedents are fully annotated and cross-referenced to assist with case management and drafting. Easy to use, it is the perfect drafting tool for litigators, helping to ensure that you find the right form and precedent for the right process at the right time and place, saving you time and money and assisting in the smooth operation of the court process.
UPDATING PROCESS
Atkins online is updated on a rolling basis throughout the year in response to changes in practice and the law. This means as a minimum one release per month. A release will generally include a complete rewrite of material in a single title or set of titles to reflect changes in the law and practice since that title or set of titles were last reissued.
In addition to this rolling title reissue programme, the Encyclopedia is kept up to date on a quarterly basis. Selected authors and the in-house editorial team made up of seven legally qualified editors, regularly review the material across all volumes and new developments are noted, where appropriate, across titles
