Description

A portable handbook for civil litigation in New South Wales.

NSW Civil Procedure Handbook 2024 provides practitioners with essential procedural and evidence legislation and annotations in a single volume.

Whether you are on your feet in court or meeting with clients and counsel, you are guided to the content you need by features such as thumb tabs, rich tables of contents and cases, shading on annotations, detailed page headings and subject index.

This volume takes selected legislation and commentary from Thomson Reuters’ NSW Civil Practice and Procedure Suite which, under the guidance of The Hon John P Hamilton KC, The Hon Justice Geoff Lindsay AM and Carol Webster SC, specifically addresses the requirements for practice within the uniform rules framework.
