Costs in Family Proceedings provides answers to all your costs questions. The early chapters address the scope for orders for costs between parties, while the later chapters provide coverage of: cost allowances, wasted costs, costs assessment (including indemnity costs), enforcement of costs orders, and the full range of other costs issues which may arise in family proceedings.
As the only book of its kind available, this is an essential title for all family law solicitors, barristers, judiciary and academics, as well as costs draftsmen.
‘…magisterial… Our library here will stock this book. Family practitioners should…expect that all family judges will want to work from it.’
